The Cincinnati-Middletown metro area absorbed 427 homes in the week ending Nov. 29, 2025, outpacing new inventory additions of 347 listings as 41.8% of active properties reduced asking prices. The Огайо metro maintained just 2.3 months of supply, tighter than the national average of 2.8 months, while operating in seller-favorable conditions.
Cincinnati’s median list price of $359,900 exceeded Ohio’s statewide median of $279,000 by 29%, yet the metro achieved faster inventory turnover through strategic price positioning. The market’s price per square foot reached $190, surpassing Ohio’s $162 but remaining 10% below the national level of $210.
Price adjustments fuel buyer activity
Active listings totaled 3,636 single-family homes across the Cincinnati metro, with 41.8% featuring reduced prices compared to less than 1% showing increases at 0.8%. The median days on market held at 49 days, matching Ohio’s state level but beating the national median of 77 days by 28 days.
The absorption rate of 427 homes weekly exceeded new listing activity, creating downward pressure on available inventory. Relisted properties comprised 13.8% of active listings, indicating sellers adjusting strategies to capture buyer interest in the competitive environment.
Metro commands premium over state pricing
Cincinnati’s $359,900 median list price represented a significant premium over Ohio’s broader market, where homes listed at a median $279,000. The price differential reflected the metro’s stronger demand dynamics and tighter inventory conditions compared to statewide averages.
The market maintained 2.3 months of supply, slightly above Ohio’s 2.1 months but well below the national 2.8-month level. This inventory constraint supported seller-favorable conditions despite the high percentage of price reductions occurring across active listings.
