Market Trends in the Philadelphia Suburbs
December, 2025: November closings were down in 3 of the 5 counties tracked below, while median sales prices and days on market were up slightly. Homes that are well priced and move-in ready are always in demand and often sell quickly with multiple offers. Homes that are either overpriced or need too much work are taking longer to sell.

November, 2025: Real estate data is now practically ubiquitous, but it doesn’t tell the entire story. Local, anecdotal information points to a slowing market and buyer fatigue. I’ve watched countless buyers walk in and out of open houses if the house was in need of work or not the perfect layout, not even making it to their short list.
At a recent broker event, several agents noted that they listings are not getting any showings at all, representing a real change in the market.
Redfin reports deal fallout at 15% in September, due to home inspections and concerns about the economy. One way to get ahead of this trend is to have your home pre-inspected and fix any glaring issues in advance of listing. If you can’t afford the repairs, you can offer a buyer credit or price accordingly. This is especially important for septic systems and structural issues, which can take weeks or months to address.
