☀️ Just like summer in Billings, the housing market has been HOT… but not too hot to handle. Let’s break down what’s happening right now so whether you’re thinking about buying, selling, or just curious, you’ve got the inside scoop.

📊 The Big Picture

• Median Listing Price: Around $440K–$488K depending on which report you peek at. Translation: prices are holding steady, not skyrocketing.

• Median Sold Price: About $419K, which means homes are selling just under asking on average.

• Days on Market: Homes are taking about 2 months to sell (up from just 33 days last summer). In other words—buyers have a little more time to breathe!

😎 What It Feels Like Out There

The market isn’t the frenzy it was a year or two ago. More homes are popping up for sale (yay, inventory!), and that’s giving buyers choices and negotiation power. Sellers? It just means you’ve got to make your home shine—pricing smartly and putting its best foot forward.

Think of it like patio season in Billings: if your home is the one serving nachos and cider flights, you’re going to get the crowd.

👩🏻‍💼 Rachel’s Quick Takes

• For Buyers:
  You’ve got breathing room! More options, fewer bidding wars. Keep an eye on mortgage rates, but don’t wait too long if you see “the one.”

• For Sellers:
  This is the season to stand out. Good photos, curb appeal, and the right price tag are your best friends. Homes are selling—just not as lightning fast as before.

• For Investors:
  Opportunity is here. With more listings and longer market times, you can be strategic. Plus, Billings’ rental market is still strong.
