December is never a month that sets trends — but it does confirm them. And the December 2025 numbers across Nashville and Middle Tennessee did exactly that.
The market isn’t frantic anymore. It’s more deliberate, more price-sensitive, and far more segmented by property type and location than it was just a few years ago.
Single-Family Homes in Nashville: Still Moving, Just Not Rushing
In Nashville proper, the single-family market continues to show resilience — but with noticeably more balance than buyers or sellers were used to during the peak years.
- Median sale price: $630,000
- Months of supply: 4.47
- Average days on market (DOM): 42
A truly balanced market typically sits closer to 5–6 months of supply. At just under that, Nashville single-family homes are no longer in a frenzied seller’s market — but they aren’t fully buyer-driven either. What’s changed most is pace: buyers now have time to think, compare options, and negotiate — especially when a home isn’t priced or positioned well from the start.
The Bigger Shift: Condos Tell a Different Story
The most meaningful shift in December showed up in the condo market.
- Nashville condo supply: 8.23 months
- Davidson County condo supply: 7.63 months
- Median condo sale price (Davidson County): $350,000 (a 1-2% decrease year-over-year)
That level of inventory clearly favors buyers. More options mean less urgency, more leverage, and more room to negotiate — particularly for first-time buyers or downsizers who felt priced out of the market a few years ago. For sellers, this doesn’t mean condos aren’t selling — it means pricing, condition, and realistic expectations matter more than ever.
Around Middle Tennessee: One Market, Many Speeds
Zooming out, December reinforced how localized this market has become. Same month. Same interest rates. Very different outcomes depending on location.
- Williamson County remains the region’s premium market — higher prices, and tighter inventory than most surrounding areas.
- Rutherford and Sumner Counties continue to attract value-driven buyers, with faster-moving segments depending on price point and condition.
- Wilson County stood out for quick turnover this month, with an average DOM around 30 days.
Overall Greater Nashville Market Snapshot
- Total closings: 33,737 homes sold in Greater Nashville (down half a percent compared to December 2024)
- Inventory: Up 18% year-over-year, continuing the gradual shift toward more buyer choice
- Days on Market: 39. note: you might see DOM from other places citing this as 68, but that is incorrect. Reach out if you'd like an explanation.
What This Means Going Into 2026
For sellers
- Pricing correctly from day one matters more than timing.
- Homes that miss the mark tend to sit — and then chase the market.
- Condition and presentation are no longer optional.
For buyers
- There’s more room to negotiate than headlines suggest.
- Condo buyers, in particular, have meaningful leverage.
- Patience is often rewarded, especially outside turnkey listings.
Final Takeaway
December didn’t cool the market — it clarified it.
Middle Tennessee is moving into 2026 with more inventory, more choice, and more thoughtful decision-making on both sides of the table. The homes that sell are the ones that align with today’s reality — not yesterday’s expectations.
