Kentucky realtors' latest report indicates a total of $1.43 billion in real estate sales were recorded within the Commonwealth

The Kentucky real estate market continued its upward trend in July 2025, with significant increases in total sales volume, new listings, and number of listings sold.

  • Total sales volume reached an impressive $1.55 billion, marking a 9.6% year-over-year (YoY) increase and a 1.65% month-over-month (MoM) rise.
  • Number of listings sold rose to 4,737, a 3.6% YoY increase and a 1.68% MoM growth.
  • New listings increased by 8.7% YoY and 4.8% MoM, totaling 6,802.
  • The median sales price was $279,900, up 5.6% YoY but slightly down 1.81% MoM.
  • Contrary to expectations, days on market increased to 14 days, which is 3 days longer YoY and 1 day longer MoM.

This data suggests that while sales volume, listings, and prices have increased year-over-year, homes stayed on the market a bit longer in July 2025 compared to the previous year, indicating more inventory and choice for buyers. The months of supply were 3.22, suggesting a relatively balanced market approaching the end of the traditional summer selling season.

Other sources confirm moderate growth and stability in Kentucky's market in 2025, with typical home values rising about 5% annually and pending sales progressing in about two weeks on average. This is consistent with the 14 days reported as days on market.

For buyers looking to understand their housing affordability factors, Kentucky Realtors encourages the use of the Purchasing Power Calculator, a comprehensive tool that shows buyers how many listings are available, average bedrooms, square footage, and pertinent trends in their desired area.

In summary, July 2025 was a very strong month due to increased sales volume and listings, supporting sellers with higher median prices, but buyers also benefited from more inventory and a slightly longer decision window before purchase. The increase in days on the market means the market is not overheating and offers buyers more selection and negotiation opportunity.
