DENVER, June 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- For the fourth consecutive month, homes sales rose in May, increasing 8.6% from April, and sales remained below 2024 levels, with May sales finishing 3.5% lower year over year.

New listings also increased 4.4% from April and 7.9% from May 2024, marking the 15th聽straight month of a year-over-year increase.

"It's great to see the spring market end on a solid note, and we're optimistic that this momentum could carry into an active summer season."

In Atlanta, the market is showing signs of renewed energy. Kristen Jones, Broker/Owner of RE/MAX Around Atlanta, noted that,聽"The Atlanta housing market saw more homes coming to market and a noticeable uptick in sales compared to April.

Report Details
The REMAX National Housing Report is distributed monthly on or about the 15th. The Report is based on MLS data for the stated month in 52 metropolitan areas, includes single-family residential property types, and is not annualized. For maximum representation, most of the largest metro areas in the country are represented, and an attempt is made to include at least one metro area in almost every state.

Definitions
Closed Transactions are the total number of closed residential transactions during the given month. Months' Supply of Inventory is the total number of residential properties listed for sale at the end of the month (current inventory) divided by the number of sales contracts signed (pending listings) during the month. Where "pending" data is unavailable, an inferred pending status is calculated using closed transactions. Days on Market is the average number of days that pass from the time a property is listed until the property goes under contract. Median Sales Price for a metro area is the median sales price for closed transactions in that metro area. The nationwide Median Sales Price is calculated at the nationwide aggregate level using all sale prices from the included metro areas. The Close-to-List Price Ratio is the average value of the sales price divided by the list price for each closed transaction.
