Market Updates

Market Update (Oct 2025)

I get asked all the time, “So, how’s the market?”

While the headlines might tell you one thing, I like to dig into the numbers to find the real story.

For September, the data for the OKC Metro gave me some insights you won’t hear from every other agent.
 
If you’re thinking about buying or selling, here are three things the numbers are telling us right now — and how to use that to your advantage:
 
1. More Homes, Slower Movement

For the nerds: Active listings are up 30% year-over-year with about 4 months of supply. Median days on market increased from 26 to 38 days.
 
Translation: There are way more houses for buyers to choose from, so homes are sitting longer. Buyers aren’t rushing anymore — they’re shopping around and waiting for the right price or the right deal.
 
2. Overpricing is Killing Momentum

For the nerds: 46% of listings made a price reduction before selling, and most of those ended up closing below where they would’ve if priced correctly upfront.
 
Translation: Testing the market = sitting. Buyers scroll past overpriced homes and pounce once they see a price drop — usually with a lower offer than you hoped for.
 
3. Failed Listings are Up

For the nerds: Expired, canceled, or withdrawn listings climbed 22% month-over-month across the OKC metro.
 
Translation: Some sellers aimed too high and missed their window. The homes that didn’t sell weren’t necessarily “bad”, they were just misaligned with buyer expectations or skipped prep work.
 
So, What Does This Mean for You?

For Sellers
It’s not a bad market — it’s a strategic one. Buyers are still writing offers, but they’re well-informed and cautious. Pricing right from day one, keeping your home move-in ready, and adjusting early if traffic stalls are the keys to protecting your equity.
 
For Buyers
Finally — some breathing room. More listings, longer days on market, and sellers offering concessions (around $6,000 on average) give buyers leverage again. If you’re pre-approved and ready to move fast, you can negotiate a solid deal without the chaos of multiple offers.
 
I love analyzing the data, so if you have questions about what these numbers mean for your specific situation, just reply to this email or text me (405) 606-1914.
