Tennessee Housing Market Update: What’s Next for 2025?
Existing home sales in the United States increased to 4.24 million in December from 4.15 million in November 2024. By the end of the year, experts predict sales will reach 4.3 million, signaling potential stabilization after a turbulent market.
Why does this matter? Home sales nationwide have dropped over 35% since the peak in summer 2022. Here in Tennessee, the market has seen a shift, with inventory levels rising while buyer demand struggles to keep pace. More homes on the market often mean longer days on market and more competitive pricing.
If you remember your economics classes, you know that when supply increases and demand slows, prices tend to soften. That’s exactly what many parts of Tennessee have experienced over the last couple of years.
The good news? A turnaround is on the horizon.
Industry experts predict Tennessee could see a 3-5% increase in home sales in 2025, with some optimistic forecasts projecting even stronger growth. While some U.S. markets still face inventory shortages, Tennessee buyers now have more options—though affordability remains a challenge as mortgage rates continue to impact purchasing power.
Now, more than ever, experience matters.
Navigating this evolving market requires skill, strategy, and a deep understanding of local trends. Hiring an experienced real estate agent can make all the difference in guiding clients through pricing, negotiations, and securing the best deals. As Oscar Wilde put it, “Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes.” The right agent ensures those mistakes are minimized—if not avoided altogether.
Stay informed, stay prepared, and let’s make 2025 a year of success in Tennessee real estate!
