🏡 Q3 2025 Huntsville Real Estate Market Recap: What’s Happening in Madison County

The Q3 2025 Market Report from the Huntsville Area Association of Realtors offers a detailed look at where our housing market stands — and what it means for home buyers and sellers across Huntsville and Madison County. Let’s break down the highlights! 📊


📉 Home Sales & Pricing Trends

A total of 1,961 homes sold in Madison County in the third quarter of 2025 — just slightly below last year’s 1,970 sales. While that’s a minor dip of 0.5%, it’s still above the three-year Q3 average of 1,930 homes, showing steady long-term demand.

  • Median sales price: $330,000 (↓ from $336,995 in Q3 2024)

  • Average days on market: 51 days (↑ from 39 days in 2024)

  • 16% of homes sold above asking price, while 36% sold below list.

💬 Translation: the market is cooling slightly — but homes are still moving, just with more balance between buyers and sellers.


🏗️ New Construction & Price Segments

New construction remains strong, with 631 new homes sold, making up roughly 32% of all closings.

The hottest segment? Homes priced $350K–$500K, which accounted for 24% of all sales.
Meanwhile, the $800K-and-up category saw a 15% increase in activity compared to last year — a sign that luxury housing remains in demand.


🏠 Inventory & Supply

At the end of September 2025, there were 2,427 active listings, down 8% from 2024’s 2,633.
While inventory slipped slightly, it still reflects a more balanced market than we saw during the pandemic-era housing boom.

⏱️ Months of supply stayed steady compared to 2024, meaning supply and demand are stabilizing across most price ranges.


📅 Local Market Dynamics

Market activity has leveled off after several high-growth years:

  • Total units sold were 9.6% below the five-year Q3 average of 2,169 sales.

  • Prices dipped 2.1% from last year, marking the second decline in three years.

  • Average time to sell (51 days) is the longest since 2018 — proof that buyers now have a bit more breathing room.

Still, September 2025 sales were higher than both 2023 and 2024, showing renewed buyer energy as fall began.🍂


💵 The Bigger Economic Picture

According to the report, Madison County continues to grow and strengthen overall:

  • Population: 423,355 (2024 est.)

  • Median household income: $89,086

  • Local GDP (2023): $30.9 billion, up from previous years.

That economic stability helps keep our housing market resilient, even as prices normalize.


🔮 Looking Ahead

Based on current trends, Q4 2025 could see around 1,968 sales, with inventory rising slightly to 2,598 homes.

So, what does that mean?
➡️ Buyers – expect more options and less competition.
➡️ Sellers – pricing strategically and staying patient will be key to success.
