Real Estate Recap September 2025

Many pundits and podcasters are sewing doom and gloom about the real estate market.  Here in Haywood County our numbers for September show the opposite.

Our inventories rose by 26.6% in September giving us a 6.2 month’s supply of homes, based on September sales.  These numbers are historically viewed as a “balanced market”.  (A market where we have an almost equal number of buyers and sellers.)

Our closed sales were up a whopping 77.8% when compared to September 2024.  Our pending sales were also up 11% compared to September 2024.

The median sales price of a home sold in September was up 10% to $417,995 when compared to September 2024.  The average sales price of a home sold in September was up 20.8% to $544,087 when compared to September 2024.

Our days on market from list to closed rose 65.3% to 124 days compared to September 2024.  I believe this is due to the increase in inventory.  Last year inventories were so thin that buyers were rushing to get a contract in place before someone else made an offer on a home.

As you can see, real estate markets can be difficult, if not impossible to predict.  If you are thinking about listing your home for sale, or possibly buying a home, let us know.  We can help you navigate a changing market.
