The latest numbers are in—and they’re sending a clear message to both buyers and sellers in the Charlotte area.
As of May 2025, the Charlotte housing market is showing early signs of transition. Inventory is creeping up, prices are still inching forward, and homes are lingering just a little longer before going under contract. Translation?
There’s opportunity on both sides—but timing matters more than ever.
So what does this mean if you’re thinking about buying, selling, or relocating?
Let’s break down the most important numbers from May 2025:
- 🔹 Median Sold Price: $431,577
- 🔹 Active Listings: 2,895 (up 6% from last month)
- 🔹 New Listings Added: 1,835
- 🔹 Pending Sales: 1,947
- 🔹 Price per Square Foot: $240
- 🔹 Average Days on Market: 17 (up 15%)
- 🔹 Sold-to-List Price Ratio: 99%
- 🔹 Months of Inventory: 2.81
What do all these numbers mean for you?
If you’re a buyer, more inventory means more choices—and possibly more negotiating room. But with prices still rising and homes still selling at nearly full asking, waiting too long could cost you more down the line.
If you’re a seller, you still have the upper hand—but only if you price strategically and prep your home properly. Today’s buyers are informed, and they’re not overpaying unless the home shows its value.
And if you’re considering a relocation to Charlotte or exploring your first investment property, this data shows that Charlotte is still a strong, stable market with room for appreciation—especially for buyers ready to act before rates or prices rise further.
