As the early blooms push through winter’s final frost and the St. Croix Valley starts to green up, we’re also seeing something else begin to bud—momentum in the local housing market.
🌸 A Strong Seller’s Market is Blooming in Stillwater (55082)
According to the latest market data, the median list price in Stillwater has risen to $1,097,000, with inventory tightening at just 42 active single-family homes. The Market Action Index (MAI) has ticked up again this week to 48, confirming what many of us are already seeing on the ground: buyer demand is strong, and sellers hold the advantage.
💡 Local Insight: Inventory Can’t Keep Up
Despite the seasonal surge in buyer activity, the supply of homes hasn’t kept pace. Whether it’s a $550K property on an acre or a $1.8M estate on 5 acres, homes are being snapped up—often before they have a chance to linger. The average days on market is 103, but the median is just 42, underscoring how quickly well-positioned properties are moving.
📊 Interest Rates? Think Ping Pong.
Buyers are contending with interest rates that bounce like a ping pong ball—volatile, but not enough to derail their drive. I’ve been in this industry for 30 years, and I can tell you that uncertainty often motivates buyers to act fast, especially when inventory is limited and prices continue to climb.
