Fall 2025 Market Update
Autumn has arrived, and with it, a few shifts in our real estate winds in The Landings. Here’s what we’re seeing as the year winds down.
Interest remains steady…just more focused.
Inquiries from our national and local marketing are slightly below those of last year, but that’s not a surprise given the overall national real estate market. We’ve refined how we target potential buyers, focusing on those most likely to embrace life in The Landings.
Discovery Visits are down, but interest in them is growing.
While the number of in-person visits has dipped, requests for Discovery Visit information have increased — a great sign that serious buyers are doing their homework and planning ahead. Visitors today tend to be more intentional and informed. Fewer browsers, and more decision-makers.
Rates hover around 6.3-6.4% for a 30-year fixed rate.
That’s lower than mid-2024 highs but still squeezes affordability. Many of our buyers in The Landings aren’t as influenced by the higher rates, but the buyer of their home often is, when considering a move. It’s a “trickle up” effect, that influences our buyer.
Buyers are thoughtful, not rushed.
Many are approaching or in retirement, weighing decisions carefully in a mixed economic climate. They are much more discerning and have less of an appetite for major renovations.
Inventory has loosened slightly.
We’re sitting at roughly a two-month supply of homes, still a healthy ratio for values, but days on market are increasing. Nationally, listings are up 25% year over year, though still below 2019 levels.
Pricing discipline is key again.
The record-setting sales of the post COVID-19 market aren’t today’s reality. Homes that show beautifully and launch at the right price still sell quickly; those that overshoot tend to linger.
What It Means for Landings Residents
If you’re thinking about selling, start with realistic expectations and solid preparation. Your neighbor’s sale from a year ago may not be the best benchmark. Correct pricing from day one keeps momentum and attracts qualified buyers.
If you’re staying put, this is still good news. Inventory is healthy, demand remains steady, and Landings home values continue to hold firm.
If you’re buying, strategy matters. The right home, priced and presented well, still moves fast.
