Murfreesboro Real Estate Report

November Housing Recap – Murfreesboro, TN

Based on Realtracs MLS data – Month ending November 2025

November is always a transition month in the Murfreesboro housing market. We move from the fall selling season into the quieter holiday period, and the numbers often show that shift in buyer activity, days on market, and price movement.

In this November housing recap, the Turner Victory Team at Onward Real Estate walks through what changed, what stayed steady, and what it means if you are thinking about buying or selling in the next few months.

Key Numbers at a Glance

Here are the headline numbers we are watching from the November data in Murfreesboro:

Active Listings

There were an average of 1,514 active listings in Rutherford County at the end of November. That is 27% higher compared to last year, giving buyers about 325 more homes to choose from.

Homes Under Contract

In the last 30 days, roughly 414 homes went under contract. This tells us that motivated buyers are still writing offers, even as we head into the holidays.

Closings & Days on Market

November saw about 372 closed sales, with an average days on market of 41 days. Well-priced homes that show well are still moving at a steady pace.

All statistics are pulled from Realtracs MLS and focus on residential resale in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.

How Are Prices Holding Up?

Prices in Murfreesboro are currently softening slightly compared to last year. The big story is not wild swings, but a more normal, data-driven market.

Median sale price in November was $420,159.
That is approximately 6% down from November last year.
Most movement is happening in the $300,000–$500,000 price ranges.

Instead of chasing headlines, we watch how prices behave by price range and area so our clients can make decisions based on what is actually happening in their segment of the market.

What November’s Market Means for Buyers

For buyers, November often brings a little more negotiating room and a little less competition. Many casual buyers step back during the holidays, which can create opportunities for serious buyers.

You may see fewer multiple-offer situations than in peak months.
Sellers who stay on the market through the holidays are often more motivated.
There can be chances to negotiate on closing costs or repairs.

If you are renting or planning a move in early 2026, this is a good time to look at real numbers, real payments, and the actual inventory available in your price range.

What November’s Market Means for Sellers

Sellers can still have a very successful sale in November and December, but it requires a clear strategy. Buyers have more choices and more time to compare homes than they did in the frenzy years.

Pricing ahead of the market is often better than chasing it down.
Condition and presentation matter more when buyers can choose between similar homes.
A strong launch plan (photos, marketing, and online positioning) helps you stand out.

Our team studies these numbers every week so we can help you price with confidence and avoid unnecessary price reductions.
