What This Means

Exeter's housing market is sending mixed signals this March. While sales activity jumped dramatically—nearly doubling from February—prices took a notable dip, with median values dropping 18.1% month-over-month to $442,000. That's a significant swing, but here's the key context: the February baseline was unusually high, so we're likely seeing some normalization rather than alarm bells. Year-over-year, prices are only down about 7%, suggesting the market remains relatively stable compared to spring 2025.

The real story is in the inventory and timing. With 59 active listings on the market and homes taking 110 days to sell on average, this is a buyer's market. The fact that homes are selling at 99.5% of list price shows sellers are being realistic about pricing, which is helping move inventory despite the longer sales cycle. The spike in days-on-market from 90 to 110 days indicates properties are sitting longer, which makes sense given the seasonal spring influx of listings typically takes time to absorb.

For buyers, this environment offers negotiating power. For sellers in Exeter, it's worth pricing competitively and being patient—the market is moving, just at a measured pace.
