Real Estate Roundup: End-of-Year Market Review

In this special year-end episode of Clarksville Insider, host Josh Atkins delivers the final real estate roundup of the year with a big-picture look at Montgomery County’s housing market. Instead of focusing on a single month, Josh breaks down full year-end totals and compares how the market finished this year versus 2024, covering sales activity, days on market, pricing trends, and what the numbers really say beneath the headlines. Because it’s an end-of-the-year episode, the conversation goes deeper with a five-year review of interest rates and a five-year look at Montgomery County home prices, offering both short-term and long-term perspective. The goal isn’t prediction or hype, but clarity—helping homeowners, buyers, sellers, and local market watchers understand where the market has been, how it’s shifted, and what the data suggests as we move forward.
