June Real Estate Market Update!
The June 2025 numbers are in for the Mat-Su Valley "Core Area" — and the story is clear: Our local market is outperforming national trends in several key areas.
 
Here’s a quick breakdown of the latest stats and what it means for YOU: The real estate market in June 2025 shows strong improvement compared to June 2024, with closed sales rising from 479 to 571 and pending sales increasing from 279 to 311. Although active listings slightly dropped from 347 to 332, the pending-to-active ratio improved from 80% to 94%, reflecting stronger buyer activity. , and the average sales price climbed from $420,000 to $445,000—up nearly $165,000 since 2019. Overall, the market remains active, competitive, and continues to show solid growth.
 
 
Key Points:
  • Nationwide, inventory has increased by about 30% compared to 2024.
  • Not the case here in Mat-Su — we actually have slightly fewer listings than last year (332 vs. 347). Still well under "normal" 2019's inventory of 629 homes!
  • Pending sales remain strong with a pending-to-active ratio of 94%, compared to: 54% in 2019 80% in 2024.
  • The number of sales at 571 is much higher than 2024 (479) & 2023 (545). And sales are just under "normal" 2019 at 622.
  • Days on Market are slowly increasing (now at 49 days).
  • Average Sales Price hit a new high at $445,000, up from $420K last year.
 
What’s In It for You?
  • Highest Home Values Yet – Prices jumped $25K from last year.
  • Homes are now averaging just 49 days on the market, a significant improvement compared to June 2019, when the average was 69 days.
  • More Inventory than 2023 – Giving buyers slightly more options to choose from.
  • Still a Smart Time to Buy or Sell – The market remains active and balanced.
New Construction VS Existing Homes!
 
Key points
  • Buyer demand is strong across the board, with pending ratios at 143% for new homes and 80% for existing homes.
  • 26% of closings are new construction. Nationwide the average is closer to 19%.
  • Homes are selling at record-high prices, and both markets are moving, especially if priced correctly.
If You're Buying (New Construction or Existing Home):
  • New construction gives you more modern features and availability, but comes at a higher price point and you have money to spend after closing (landscaping etc).
  • Existing homes offer better pricing and quicker closings, but inventory is more limited, so you’ll need to act fast.
  • Regardless of which route you take, understanding market movement and acting decisively will help you get the best value.
