The Fredericksburg Area Association of Realtors® (FAAR) is pleased to release the latest housing market statistics from both December and full year 2025 to keep our community informed on local trends in home sales, prices, and inventory.
Denise Smith, FAAR Treasurer, provides the following comments on the current market.
“December was a busy month. Buyers were able to “shop” available inventory and negotiate some great deals, while sellers have begun adjusting to a slight shift in the market. Homes that were truly move-in ready and had major systems recently updated tended to sell more quickly than those needing improvements.
Inventory slowed toward the end of the year, but I expect that to change over the next two to three months. Overall, I believe the 2026 market will be stronger than 2025. Buyers should remain in the driver’s seat, though pricing is likely to stay stable—or even creep up slightly—as more inventory comes on the market by the end of the first quarter.”
