Higher mortgage rates continue to weigh on the Washington, D.C., housing market, with September recording 3,565 closed sales—down 8.4% year over year and the lowest September total in nearly 20 years. Buyer activity has cooled considerably, as pending sales fell 17.1% and showings declined 16.9%, with weakness extending across nearly all DMV jurisdictions. Although the median sale price increased, the rise largely reflects a greater share of higher-priced single-family home sales and fewer townhome and condo transactions.

New listings have also declined year over year as more sellers hold back, though new listings continued to outpace pending sales. Meanwhile, active inventory is climbing above pre-pandemic levels, giving buyers more options amid softer demand. Higher borrowing costs, rather than federal government cuts, appear to be the primary force behind the slowdown. As the market moves into fall, some local areas may see prices dip below year-ago levels, though substantial price declines are not anticipated.
