Key Trends

1. Homes that are priced correctly continue to move quickly, with closed sales averaging under 40 days on market.

2. Active listings are priced higher than the closed average, which may indicate that some sellers are still testing the upper limits of the market.

3. Cancelled listings at nearly $770K highlight the risk of overpricing, especially as homes in this range linger and fail to sell.

4. Pending homes show steady mid-market demand, averaging around $600K with moderate time on market.

What This Means

For Buyers: The market remains active with plenty of options. Well-priced homes are moving fast, so being prepared with pre-approval is key. Buyers looking above the $700K range may find more room to negotiate.

For Sellers: The difference between a quick sale and a long wait comes down to pricing. Homes aligned with the market’s reality — around $640K — are selling in weeks, while overpriced listings are stalling or being cancelled.

Final Thoughts

The Oldham County market in October 2025 remains strong, particularly in the mid-price ranges. While higher-end listings face longer days and more cancellations, well-priced homes continue to close quickly. As we move into late fall, strategic pricing and market alignment will be the key to success.
