Sacramento Real Estate Market Update – June 2025

Did you hear the real estate market is melting down?

If you did, stop getting your real estate news from a person who has never owned a home on TikTok, or from Bob 3 cubicles down who bought 1 home in his life and thinks he’s an expert.

THEIR IGNORANCE IS STEALING MONEY FROM YOUR FUTURE.

Let me show you why. Stick around to the end for a story about one of our buyers who lost $65,000 this year because they thought they were smarter than the market.

Average Home Price

Based on data from Trendgraphix, the average price for a Sold home in June for the 4-County Region increased 1.7% to $705,000. And the For Sale Price was down 1.8% to $820,000.

Average Price Per Square Foot

The average price per square foot in the region was down slightly to $352, compared to May and up 0.9% from this same period last year.

Number of Homes Sold

In June, a total of 1,588 homes were sold, down 8.9% from June and down 3.3% from this time last year. Pending sales increased slightly by 0.6% from May and have been relatively flat for the past 4 months.

Months of Inventory

Inventory increased to 3 months. This is up nearly 50% from this time last year, but last year saw unusually low inventory. We’re finally seeing more people deciding to jump into the market and look for a new home.

Mortgage Rate Stats

Rate hung out in the mid 6’s for most of the month. We all had a vision of rates dropping later this year, but I think that’s a long shot given the relatively strong economy.

Opinion

Stop letting random opinions make you lose money. We just had a buyer in one of our new home communities finally buy after waiting over a year “For The Market To Drop and Rates to Drop”. They realized neither of those things are happening and they lost out on $65,000 in equity in their new home.

Rates are going to be in this range for the foreseeable future. Right now is a unique moment in the market where you can get a steal on a new home with massive incentives. Those incentives are going to go away really quickly as soon as more people decide to move and rates make a move lower.

If you’re ready, willing and able to buy a home, the smart buyers are taking advantage of this market.
