Metro-level dispersion was wide: Cleveland median price +12% YoY and Tampa pending sales +15.9% YoY, while Seattle pending sales fell 15.2% YoY.

Redfin (NYSE:RKT) reports that new U.S. listings rose 2.3% YoY in the four weeks ending Oct 5, 2025, while pending sales fell 1.3% YoY.

The report highlights rising inventory and cooling buyer urgency in many metros.

Rocket (RKT)-related Redfin survey (fielded Oct 3, 2025) finds 17% of Americans are delaying a major purchase like a home or car because of the federal government shutdown and 7% are canceling plans altogether. The majority, 65%, say the shutdown has no impact on their purchase timeline. The nationally representative Ipsos survey polled 1,005 U.S. residents with a credibility interval of ±3.8 percentage points. The release notes roughly 2 million federal workers affected by suspended pay and highlights broader economic unease—mortgage rates remain above pandemic lows and home prices stay high despite slow sales.

Redfin (RKT) reported that roughly 56,000 U.S. home-purchase agreements were canceled in August 2025, equal to 15.1% of contracts that went under contract that month—up from 14.3% a year earlier and the highest August rate in records back to 2017.

Redfin surveyed 443 agents and found 70.4% of cancellations were driven by inspection or repair issues; other causes included buyer financing falling through (27.8%), inability to sell a current home (21%), and seller backing out (11.5%). Metro-level results: Atlanta led at 21%, several Florida metros exceeded 20%, and San Jose had the largest year-over-year uptick (+5.3 percentage points).

The typical condo sold for $350,000 (down ~1% YoY). Rising HOA fees, insurance costs, special assessments, and new inspection rules are reducing buyer demand, while investor purchases of condos fell 13% YoY in Q2. Redfin notes increased negotiating power for qualified condo buyers but warns to research HOA costs and potential special assessments.

Among major metros, Denver leads with 31.1% of sellers reducing prices, followed by Indianapolis (30.7%) and San Antonio (28.5%).
