The Sacramento real estate market is settling into a more balanced rhythm this spring. After a few years of rapid price changes and fast-moving inventory, the data shows a shift toward a more stable environment—for both buyers and sellers.
📊 Key Stats – February 2025
Median Home Price: $488,000 That’s a modest 1.4% increase year-over-year, signaling steady appreciation rather than the sharp spikes we’ve seen in the past. (Source: Redfin)
Active Listings: ~1,498 homes Inventory is up a significant 61.6% compared to February 2024, giving buyers more options and reducing the frenzy of bidding wars. (Source: sacrealtor.org)
Closed Sales: 672 homes That’s a 12% drop YoY, showing that while more homes are available, buyers are moving a bit more cautiously. (Source: sacrealtor.org)
Days on Market: 20 days on average Homes are taking longer to sell than they did a year ago, when the average was just 13 days. (Source: Redfin)
🏠 What This Means for Buyers
More choices and less urgency.
Potential for negotiating better terms or pricing.
Still competitive for well-priced or turnkey properties—but not as intense as 2021–2023.
💼 What This Means for Sellers
Proper pricing and strong marketing matter more than ever.
Homes that shine in photos and showings are still moving well.
Expect longer timeframes and be prepared for negotiation.
📣 Bottom Line
Sacramento’s market is cooling into a healthier pace. Buyers have breathing room, and sellers need to adapt to shifting conditions. Whether you're looking to move this season or just watching the market, understanding these trends helps you make smarter real estate decisions.
