The results are in for the final month of 2025, and the Oklahoma City real estate market is showing some fascinating shifts. Whether you are planning to plant roots in a new home or looking to pass your keys to a new owner, the December MLSOK report highlights a market that is "thawing" and providing more opportunities for everyone involved.

Here is a breakdown of what happened in December 2025 and what it means for your next move.

The Big Picture: By the Numbers

December saw a significant boost in activity compared to the same time last year. Across all property types, we saw:

• Closed Sales: Up 6.9%

• Median Sales Price: Up 3.4%

• Homes for Sale (Inventory): Up a staggering 27.7%

While the national market is seeing a slow tick upward in sales, Oklahoma City is outpacing many regions with a robust increase in available homes.

What This Means for Buyers

If you felt "squeezed" out of the market in previous years, there is good news: You finally have choices.

1. More Inventory: The number of single-family homes on the market increased by 27.1%, and townhouse/condo inventory skyrocketed by 51.8%. You are no longer limited to just one or two options in your price range.

2. Less Pressure: The "Days on Market" for single-family homes increased by 16%. This means you have a little more breathing room to do your due diligence and think through a purchase rather than feeling forced to make an offer within hours.

3. Affordability: While the national median home price has climbed to over $409,000, Oklahoma City remains a haven of affordability. The local median sales price for a single-family home sits at $259,995.

What This Means for Sellers

It is still a great time to sell, but the strategy is changing. Gone are the days of "set it and forget it."

1. Prices Are Still Rising: Equity is still growing! The median sales price for single-family homes is up 2% year-over-year, and condos/townhouses saw a healthy 8.8% jump to a median of $185,000.

2. New Competition: With new listings up 23% for single-family homes, your property needs to stand out. Because buyers have more options, your home’s condition and marketing are more important than ever.

3. Patience is Key: Expect your home to stay on the market a little longer. With the "Months’ Supply of Inventory" increasing significantly, buyers are taking their time to compare properties.

The Condo & Townhouse Spotlight

The most dramatic shifts this month occurred in the Townhouse-Condo segment. We saw a 70% increase in the months’ supply of inventory. If you are looking for an investment property or a low-maintenance lifestyle, this specific market is currently very "buyer-friendly." However, sellers in this category are still seeing strong price appreciation, even if it takes a bit longer to find the right buyer.

Final Thoughts

The Oklahoma City market is ending the year on a strong, balanced note. We are seeing a healthy "correction" where inventory is returning to normal levels, giving buyers options while still maintaining the price growth that makes homeownership a great investment for sellers.

Thinking of making a move in 2026? With inventory up and prices steady, the early months of the year are looking like an ideal time to jump in.
