Spring Market in Reno: What Buyers and Sellers Need to Know Right Now

Adobe Express - file(9)

The Reno real estate market is entering spring with a few twists. Inventory remains relatively tight, but well-prepared homes are moving quickly—especially those priced strategically and presented with transparency.

For Buyers:
While competition has eased slightly compared to peak market seasons, attractive properties still move fast. Mortgage rates are fluctuating week to week, so it’s important to stay pre-approved and ready to act. The good news? There are more potential opportunities for negotiation, particularly on homes that have been sitting for a few weeks or more.

For Sellers:
Spring is typically one of the most active times of year, and 2025 is shaping up to be no different. Buyers are looking for move-in ready homes with disclosures in place—this is where the Chase Ready program makes a difference. Sellers who handle prep work upfront may see fewer days on market and fewer surprises during escrow.

Overall Market Pulse:
Reno’s growth continues to attract both local movers and out-of-area buyers, and pricing is holding steady in most neighborhoods. While we’re not in a frenzy like years past, this season offers a balanced window of opportunity for both sides of the deal.

Thinking about a spring purchase or getting your home market-ready?
Let’s talk about what updates make the most impact in today’s Reno market. We’re here to guide you every step of the way.
