As the temperatures cool and the leaves finish falling, Reno’s real estate market is shifting gears for the final stretch of 2025. November traditionally marks a slowdown in buyer traffic — but this year, the story is a bit more nuanced.

🏡 Market Snapshot
Inventory remains tight in popular neighborhoods like Somersett, ArrowCreek, and Damonte Ranch, keeping prices steady despite fewer listings coming online. Median home prices in the Reno/Sparks area have hovered near the mid-$560,000s, and days on market have crept up slightly compared to summer.

Buyers are still active, though more selective. With mortgage rates expected to settle lower heading into early 2026, many are positioning themselves now to take advantage of upcoming opportunities.

📊 What Sellers Should Know
If you’re selling this month, highlight what your home offers that stands out — energy efficiency, cozy interior spaces, and proximity to shopping or recreation. Homes that photograph well and are move-in ready continue to draw strong attention even during the holiday season.

💡 What Buyers Should Watch
Late fall is one of the best times to negotiate. Sellers who list now are often motivated, and there’s less competition at open houses. For buyers who can look past holiday distractions, this season can deliver hidden gems.

🔍 Local Insight

• Midtown Reno continues to attract buyers looking for charm and walkability.

• South Reno’s newer communities offer convenience for families seeking space and top schools.

• Sparks and Verdi remain value-friendly options for those willing to commute a few extra minutes.

🎯 Final Takeaway
Reno’s November market is balanced, steady, and ripe with opportunity for both buyers and sellers who stay engaged. If you’re curious what your home could sell for in today’s conditions — or want help finding an end-of-year deal — now’s the time to start the conversation.
