1-Minute takeaway

Supply is growing faster than it is clearing. Buyers are showing up - they’re just choosing carefully.

What happened

Supply is growing faster than it is clearing.

Week ending Jun 6, 2025.

6 new listings arrived while 4 sales closed. When options increase, urgency usually drops and sellers get pushed toward clearer price discovery.

Market pulse

Two clean lines that explain the week - inventory and sales across the full series available in the sheet.

Inventory

104 current

High 136 · Low 5.00

Sales

2.75 current

High 6.75 · Low 1.00

Sales that explain the market

When price and terms remove friction, buyers move.

  • 13 Aspen Crescent - $1,149,000 (listed $1,149,000) - 14 DOM
  • 24 CEDAR BOWL Drive - $1,715,000 (listed $1,799,000) - 302 DOM
  • D-10-60 Cokato Road - $407,500 (listed $417,900) - 26 DOM

More sales this week

  • 562 6TH Avenue - $782,500 - 16 DOM

The faster outcomes still tend to be the homes that remove uncertainty early. This week’s sold mix: 0 over ask, 3 under ask.

The Board

Price discovery is happening in public.

  • Cleared: 24 CEDAR BOWL Drive - sold after 302 DOM

These moves usually show where buyers are pushing back - and where sellers are adjusting quickly.

New listings worth noting

More choice is slowing buyer urgency.

Even a small increase in new inventory gives buyers more direct comparisons - and that usually makes them slower to stretch.

Market example

9 PARK Crescent - $2,999,995

Worth watching early - clean listings tend to show their hand quickly once tours start.

Also new this week

  • Lot 10-6 Huckleberry Place - $1,549,000
  • 1170 Mcdonald Avenue - $625,000
  • 201-1500 MCDONALD Avenue - $535,000
  • 203-36 Rivermount Place - $499,995
  • E10-60 COKATO Road - $249,000

Next week I’m watching

Whether buyers absorb the new inventory. If the clean listings move early, demand is still there under the surface. If they sit, pricing will do more of the work.

My take

Patience is the default right now - not paralysis.

More listings doesn’t automatically mean more sales. It means buyers can compare harder - and the homes that feel low-friction usually move first.
