September Trends & Local Insights
The Lake Minnetonka real estate market remained strong in September 2025, showing steady buyer demand and upward price movement across most segments.
Closed sales jumped 20.8% compared to last year, even as new listings dipped slightly by 2.2%. This combination reflects continued competition for desirable homes, particularly in well-located lake and luxury neighborhoods.
The median sales price surged 26.9% year-over-year, rising from $670,000 to $850,000. While the average sales price declined 9.4%, this likely indicates a shift toward more midrange properties within the overall mix of sales—not a drop in value.
Homes took an average of 56 days to sell, up slightly from last year’s 53, suggesting a modest cooling but still an active and well-paced market. Sellers received an impressive 97.5% of their original list price, showing that well-priced homes continue to draw strong interest.
Inventory levels rose about 5%, but the months’ supply of homes edged down to 4.0, keeping the market tilted toward sellers while gradually moving toward balance.
Overall, the Lake Minnetonka area continues to show strength heading into the final quarter of 2025. With steady demand, solid pricing, and an expanding mix of inventory, both buyers and sellers are finding meaningful opportunities in this iconic lakeside market.
