As we move into the fall months, the Triangle real estate market continues to show resilience and stability—plus a shift toward more stable conditions of previous years. The latest data reveals a mix of slight price growth, increased inventory, and moderate changes in buyer demand, all trends that are creating new opportunities for both buyers and sellers! Here, we break down the current market across the Triangle.
Triangle-Wide Market Highlights: October 2025
Median Sales Price: $415,000 | Compared to this time last year, home prices have remained steady, while rates are up 1.5% from September.
Closed Sales: 3,006 | There was a slight dip (1.8%) in closings from September as interest rates have gone up.
Median Days on Market: 36 days | Homes are moving at a reasonable pace, up slightly month-over-month but consistent with typical fall conditions.
New Listings: 4,317 | Up 4.6%, this increase in supply helps ease competition and gives buyers more options, reversing tighter conditions from previous years.
What This Means for Buyers
More inventory means more choices, and more days on the market means more negotiating power. Additionally, since prices are stable, there’s less fear of overpaying. All told, buyers may find now is a great time to start (or restart) their search for a new home!
What This Means for Sellers
Prices remain strong, demand is still active (especially in Raleigh!), and well-maintained and well-positioned homes are still selling quickly. With more competition hitting the market, sellers should lean on strong staging and accurate pricing to stand out from others.
The Bottom Line
With steady prices, growing inventory, and homes selling at a healthy pace, this balanced market is something buyers and sellers haven’t seen in years. Whether you’re looking to buy or sell, now’s a great time to capitalize on these trends—and connect with a trusted real estate professional (that’s us!).
