Fresh Market Trends – Minneapolis Market Update Septemeber 2025

According to Minnesota REALTORS® and Minneapolis Area REALTORS®, home sales climbed as rates fell this September:

  • New listings: ↑ 4.9% statewide | ↑ 5.2% Twin Cities metro
  • Pending sales: ↑ 5.9% statewide | ↑ 7.9% metro
  • Median sales price: ↑ 2.1% statewide ($357,200) | ↑ 2.6% metro ($390,000)

Buyers and sellers are both re-entering the market, with 54% of Minnesota counties showing new listing growth and nearly 59% posting more sales year-over-year.

Even with a small uptick in inventory, both the state and metro remain undersupplied — just 3.2 months statewide and 2.7 months metro, below the 5–6 months that define a balanced market.

➡️ Takeaway: Improved affordability and rate cuts could make Q4 a strong finish for agents positioned with leverage and marketing systems in place.

Pro Tip for Agents:
