January 2026 | Real Estate Insights — Sioux Falls Housing Market

As we step into 2026, Sioux Falls’ housing landscape is showing some interesting new shifts — ones that both buyers and sellers should pay close attention to. After years of rapid price growth and historically tight supply, the market is transitioning in ways that create new opportunities and change expectations for everyone involved.

1. More Listings, but Still a Balanced Market

In late 2025, the number of homes on the market increased compared to the previous year, meaning buyers are seeing more choices than they did during the peak of the inventory shortage. At the same time, total closed sales dipped slightly and homes stayed on the market a bit longer. Sellers are in a position where presentation and pricing matter more than ever to attract the right offer.

2. Prices Showing Stability — Not Volatility

While Sioux Falls has seen strong price growth over the past few years, recent data suggests prices are starting to level out — with median home values showing only modest increases or slight shifts year-over-year. This signals a maturing market where buyers may feel more confident that they’re making a sound long-term investment, and sellers can still capitalize on equity built over time.

3. Mortgage Rates and Buyer Affordability

One of the biggest stories for 2026 is that mortgage rates have slightly receded from recent highs — giving buyers more purchasing power and bringing some homes that were previously out of reach back into range. Lower rates combined with increased inventory could make this year a strong one for prospective homeowners who’ve been waiting on the sidelines.

4. Neighborhood Revitalization & Community Investment

Beyond sales and prices, Sioux Falls is investing in housing at the neighborhood level. The city’s Neighborhood Revitalization Program and other housing initiatives are focused on improving older homes, making neighborhoods more livable, and helping homeowners keep properties safe and sustainable long-term. These efforts don’t just improve individual homes — they help strengthen the community as a whole.

5. What This Means for Your Home Decisions

Whether you’re thinking about selling, buying, or investing in Sioux Falls in 2026, the market is shifting toward a more balanced and informed environment:

• Buyers: More listings + improved rates = more opportunity without severe bidding wars.

• Sellers: Staging and competitive pricing now make a significant difference in how quickly (and profitably) a home sells.

• Investors: Neighborhood upgrades and steady demographic growth continue to support long-term value.

2026 isn’t just another year in Sioux Falls real estate — it’s a transition year, blending strong fundamentals with new market dynamics. At Home Sioux Falls, we’re here to help you navigate the experience — whether you’re selling your current property, finding your next one, or simply curious about where the market is headed.

As the holidays and end-of-year festivities draw near, many people pause their house hunting or wait until spring to sell. But that slowdown can actually be an advantage — both for home buyers and sellers. Here’s why December can be an ideal time to make your move in Sioux Falls — and how Home Sioux Falls is ready to help you every step of the way.

🎯 Buyers: Enjoy Less Competition and Better Deals

• With fewer buyers actively searching during the holiday season, you’re less likely to get caught in a bidding war. That means more time to evaluate homes carefully — and more negotiating power.

• Many sellers listing homes now are motivated to close before the end of the year, whether for work moves, tax planning, or just a fresh start in January. That urgency often translates into flexible pricing or favorable terms.
  

• A quieter market also means you’re more likely to get faster, more personalized service from lenders, inspectors, and agents — fewer backlogged files, fewer delays, and more attention on your transaction.

How we help: At Home Sioux Falls, we stay active all year — even during holidays. We can help you find hidden gems, guide you through financing, and make sure paperwork, inspections, and closing go smoothly.

Sellers: Stand Out When Competition Is Low

• Typically, fewer homes get listed during the holidays, so your listing has a greater chance to shine. With fewer comparable homes on the market, buyer attention naturally focuses on available properties.

• Motivated buyers — those who are looking now — tend to be serious, often with a reason to move before the end-of-year: jobs, relocations, or tax planning. That seriousness can lead to faster offers and a smoother sale.

• Cozy, inviting homes with warm lighting and subtle holiday touches can evoke emotional appeal. A well-staged home during the holidays can help buyers imagine their own celebrations there.

How we help: We assist in pricing strategy, staging suggestions, marketing exposure, and handle all the heavy lifting so you don’t stress over holiday scheduling or showing times.

Why Home Sioux Falls Is Your Go-To This Season

• We know the local market and the seasonal dynamics that work in your favor.

• We’re available even during the holidays — ready to respond when others are slowing down.

• We provide end-to-end support: from home search and listing to closing, financing, and even staging advice.

• We understand timing — helping you potentially close before the new year, which can be ideal for financial and tax planning.

Whether you’re looking for your dream home — or you want to sell and take advantage of lower competition — now is a smart time to act.
