“Following the usual pattern, the median sale price in August was up versus 2024 but down versus July,” said Cassidy Norton, Associate Publisher and Media Relations Director of The Warren Group. “Buyers who are looking now are likely to see lower prices and reductions from earlier in the year. Interest rates are down at the moment, which may help some buyers and sellers decide to enter the market.”

“The condo market underwent a bit of an adjustment earlier this year, and purchases made in June and July are reflected in the August numbers,” Norton continued. “For the first time since 2011, the condo market had four months of inventory in May. That’s exactly what the market needs to moderate prices, and is reflected in an increase in sales versus August of last year, as well as drop in the median sale price.”
