December saw a surprising 32% surge in sales (299 vs 226 in November), defying typical holiday slowdown patterns. This suggests pent-up demand from buyers rushing to close before year-end, likely driven by tax considerations and rate lock expirations.
Active listings dropped 10% month-over-month to 938, bringing inventory closer to historical December norms. The peak of 1,138 in September appears to have been the high-water mark for 2025's inventory surge.
Despite year-end volatility, median prices remained remarkably stable at $424.9K (down just 0.7%). The market has consistently maintained the $425-445K range throughout 2025, demonstrating underlying demand strength.
Median DOM jumped to 49 days (+63% from November), reflecting typical winter slowdown. Properties listed in December face longer marketing periods, though this is seasonal and should improve in spring 2026.
Total 2025 sales reached 3,605 homes (vs 3,480 in 2024, +3.6%). Inventory averaged 945 active listings (up 38% from 2024's 751 average), marking a clear shift toward a more balanced market after the extreme seller's market of 2020-2023.
With 245 pending contracts, January 2026 closings should be solid. Expect typical spring inventory build starting February-March. The market appears poised for a balanced 2026 with ~3 months of inventory and steady price appreciation in the 2-4% range.
