    🏡 Louisiana Housing Market Snapshot – June 2025

    The Louisiana housing market has seen a few shifts lately. While home prices are holding steady, there’s been a noticeable drop in the number of homes hitting the market. Here’s a breakdown of what’s going on:

    🔢 Inventory & Listings Are Tighter

    • About 16,568 homes were listed in May—down 4% from last year.
    • New listings also dipped slightly to 3,904, a 2.8% decrease from last May.
    • Months of supply is hovering around 3 months, showing no major change year-over-year.

    👉 What this means: Fewer homes on the market gives sellers a bit of an advantage, but it’s not overly competitive just yet.

    Homes Are Selling a Bit Faster

    • Median days on market (DOM): 52 days in May, which is 5 days quicker than the same time last year.
    • Many homes are going under contract in just 34 days.

    👉 What this means: Buyers are acting faster, especially when well-priced homes show up.

    💰 Home Prices Are Climbing – Slowly

    • The median sale price is now around $260,500, up 2.4% year-over-year.
    • List prices are just a bit higher at $269,967.
    • Average home value sits at $210,758, actually down a bit by 1.1% compared to last year.

    👉 What this means: Sale prices are holding strong, but there’s some softness in property valuations and asking prices.

    🧱 What About New Builds & Negotiation Trends?

    • 12.5% of homes are selling for more than asking price.
    • But 30.7% are selling below asking—meaning price cuts are happening more often.
    • Overall, sellers are getting about 97.2% of their list price.

    👉 What this means: There’s still room for negotiation. Bidding wars are not the norm.

    🌟 The Big Picture

    • Insurance costs and high interest rates (around 7%) are holding some buyers back.
    • Urban areas like large metros remain the most active, while smaller markets are feeling affordability pressure.

    Final Thoughts

    • The Louisiana market is stable but leaning slightly toward sellers:
    • Homes are selling faster than last year.
    • Fewer listings make competition stronger in some areas.
    • Prices are still rising just not rapidly.
    • More sellers are making price concessions to get deals done.
