��June2025MarketSnapshot: CentralIowaEasesintoSummer
In other words...
The Central Iowa housing market is showing signs of seasonal balance as we head into summer. In June, buyers found slightly more options on the market while sellers continued to benefit from steady demand and solid pricing. Inventory has ticked up compared to earlier this spring, giving buyers a bit more breathing room. However, well-priced homes are still moving quickly, especially under $350K. If you're thinking of buying or selling, now is a great time to make a move before the back-to-school rush. Let us know how we can help you navigate the market!
