St. Louis Metro Home Sales Show Slight Decline, Offering Opportunities for Buyers and Sellers

As we approach the end of October 2025, the St. Louis metropolitan area has witnessed the sale of 28,890 homes, marking a slight decline of 0.85% compared to the 29,137 homes sold during the same period last year. This stable market environment presents both challenges and opportunities for potential home buyers and sellers. For those considering entering the market, this minor dip in sales may suggest a more balanced market, offering a window of opportunity for families to explore available housing options without the intense competition seen in previous years.

Despite the slight decrease from last year, the market remains robust, with consistent activity across both Missouri and Illinois counties within the metro area. For sellers, this stability indicates a continued demand for homes, while buyers can take advantage of potentially less competitive conditions.
