A Balanced Market Brings Stability & Opportunity
As spring breathes new life into West Texas, the real estate market in Abilene is picking up right on cue. March 2025 delivered a solid boost in activity, reflecting a continued trend of healthy, balanced conditions that offer promising opportunities for both buyers and sellers.
📈 Strong Seasonal Start
March showed a 4.1% increase in closed sales year-over-year and came in nearly 18% higher than the average of January and February this year. It’s a strong start to the spring selling season, and all indicators point toward steady activity in the months ahead.
🏠 Inventory Holds Steady
We’ve now had a full 12 consecutive months with 4+ months of inventory, a signal that the local market has officially rebalanced. This shift gives both buyers and sellers a fair playing field—gone are the extreme swings we saw during peak pandemic years. Current inventory sits at 4.2 months, up slightly from 3.9 in March 2024.
💰 Price Stability Reinforced
The median home price in March 2025 was $246,250, up 5.8% from a year ago, continuing a remarkably stable stretch. In fact, for the last 15 months, the median sales price in Abilene has hovered between $230,000 and $250,000. That consistency is great news for appraisals, financing, and long-term homeowner confidence.
