The Cincinnati-Middletown metro area absorbed 427 homes in the week ending Nov. 29, 2025, outpacing new inventory additions of 347 listings as 41.8% of active properties reduced asking prices. The Ohio metro maintained just 2.3 months of supply, tighter than the national average of 2.8 months, while operating in seller-favorable conditions. Cincinnati's median list price of $359,900 exceeded Ohio's statewide median of $279,000 by 29%, yet the metro achieved faster inventory turnover through strategic price positioning.

Nearly half of all home sellers in the Portland-Vancouver-Hillsboro metro area have slashed their asking prices, marking one of the most aggressive repricing environments in the nation. The latest data from HousingWire shows 49.8% of active listings carried reduced prices as of Nov. 7, 2025, while homes lingered on the market for a median of 84 days. The widespread price cuts signal a fundamental shift in negotiating power as Portland's housing market moves firmly into buyer-favorable territory.
