Year-In-Review: 2025

Are you curious about the latest trends shaping the Westchester real estate market? The Compass 2025 Year-in-Review Market Report offers a comprehensive look at key performance metrics, with data broken down by school districts and select postal areas (POs).

Below is a snapshot of how the single-family home market in Westchester County performed in 2025 compared to 2024 and what these year-over-year changes mean for buyers and sellers heading into the new year.

Westchester County Real Estate Market Overview: 2025 vs. 2024

Here’s how the market stacked up year-over-year:

  • +4.3% (Sales Transactions): More homes changed hands in 2025, signaling steady buyer demand and continued market activity across the county.
  • +10.6% (Sales Volume): Total dollar volume rose meaningfully, reflecting both higher prices and strong absorption of available inventory.
  • +6.5% (Median Price): Home values continued to appreciate, underscoring sustained demand for well-located, well-maintained properties.
  • +6.0% (Average Price): Price growth remained consistent across price points, not isolated to just the luxury segment.
  • +2.6% (Average Days on Market): Homes took slightly longer to sell compared to last year, suggesting a more balanced pace and a buyer pool that is thoughtful but still active.

What Does This Mean for Buyers and Sellers?

For Sellers: With sales activity up and prices continuing to rise, 2025 proved to be another strong year for sellers. That said, the modest increase in days on market highlights the importance of pricing and preparation. Homes that were well-positioned sold successfully, while buyers showed less tolerance for overpricing. Strategy mattered more than ever.

For Buyers: While prices are higher than last year, Westchester remains a highly desirable place to live, offering long-term value across many communities. The slightly slower pace of sales can create opportunities—particularly for buyers who are patient, informed, and ready to act when the right home becomes available.
