The Greater Cincinnati housing market showed signs of stabilization in February 2025, as median prices rose and sales activity maintained levels similar to the previous year. This information was reported by the REALTOR Alliance of Greater Cincinnati.

In February, home sales totaled 1,052, marking a slight decrease of 1.6% from the 1,069 homes sold during the same month last year. The median sales price for homes in Butler, Clermont, Hamilton, and Warren counties reached $299,950—a 7.1% increase from February 2024's figure of $280,065.

"The Greater Cincinnati housing market is coming into balance as we approach the start of the traditional home buying season," said DaVan Gassett, President of the REALTOR Alliance of Greater Cincinnati. "Pricing continues to see favorable growth, while sales activity is keeping pace with levels from a year ago. Equally important, we are seeing a significant uptick in inventory levels, which will provide buyers with an array of options during their home search."

Gassett also noted that both buyers and sellers have unique opportunities in the current market environment. He emphasized that working with a skilled real estate professional can be crucial for achieving housing goals.

In terms of year-to-date figures for 2025 compared to 2024: home sales increased by 6.2%, reaching 2,042 up from last year's total of 1,922 over the same period. The median price for these months reached $285,000—an increase of 5.6% from $270,000 recorded during early months last year.
