Spring has arrived in the Magic Valley, and with it comes a fresh look at how the real estate market is performing across Twin Falls County. Whether you’re a homeowner considering a move, a first-time buyer stepping into the market, or simply keeping tabs on your home’s value, here’s a full breakdown of the March 2025 numbers—and what they mean for you.
What You Need to Know About the Twin Falls County Market:
Number of Residential Sales
In March 2025, 95 single-family homes were sold in Twin Falls County. That total includes:
77 existing homes
18 newly constructed homes
Compared to March of last year, we saw a slight 7.8% dip in total home sales. While that might sound discouraging on the surface, it’s important to view it in context: March tends to be a transitional month in real estate, with buyers and sellers just beginning to ramp up for the busy spring and summer seasons.
Looking at the year-to-date numbers, the numberof total homes sold are up 8.37%, sales of existing homes are down about 11.5% compared to this point in 2024, while new construction sales have actually increased by 12.5%, showing signs that new builds are gaining momentum.
What does this tell us? While there’s been a minor slowdown in existing home transactions, buyer activity hasn’t disappeared—it’s just shifting slightly toward newer homes.

Months of Inventory (MOI)
Inventory levels play a big role in shaping whether it’s a buyer’s or seller’s market. In March:
There were 368 active residential listings in Twin Falls County
With 95 homes sold, that gives us an MOI (Months of Inventory) of 3.87
That number means that if no new homes were listed, it would take nearly four months to sell all existing inventory. Generally speaking:
1–3 months = Seller’s market
4–6 months = Balanced market
6+ months = Buyer’s market
At just under four months, Twin Falls is walking the line between a strong seller’s market and a more balanced one. Inventory is up from 293 listings last March, giving buyers more breathing room and reducing the competition we saw over the last few years.
New Listings
Builders and sellers are answering the call: March had a total of 112 newly constructed residential listings, a 27% increase from the 88 listed last March.
This rise in new construction inventory is good news for buyers looking for move-in-ready homes with modern features and energy efficiency. On the flip side, existing residential listings also increased to 256, up from 205 last year—another indicator that sellers are becoming more confident about listing.
Average Sales Price
Home values in Twin Falls County remain steady and strong. Here’s the breakdown:
Overall average price:
$403,173 (↑ 1.75% year-over-year)
Existing homes:
$392,032 (↑ 4.04%)
New construction:
$452,150 (↓ 6.24%)
The slight dip in new construction prices may reflect builders offering incentives or more competitive pricing in response to longer days on market. On the other hand, existing homes are showing a gentle upward trend, suggesting steady demand and appreciating values in well-maintained resale properties.
For buyers, this stability is reassuring—it signals that the market isn’t swinging wildly. For sellers, it shows that value is holding and there’s room for appreciation with the right strategy.
Days on Market
How quickly homes are selling can tell us a lot about demand. In March:
Existing homes spent an average of 60 days on market, down from 69 days a year ago.
Newly constructed homes took 117 days on average to go pending, compared to 107 last March.
What Does This All Mean?
For buyers: Inventory is improving, and while competition still exists, you’re no longer facing the ultra-tight market of previous years. Take your time to find the right fit—but be ready to act when you do, and be competive on newly listed properties.
For sellers: Homes are still moving, especially if priced well and presented properly. With new listings increasing, now is the time to prepare your home to stand out.
For investors and builders: New construction is gaining ground, but longer market times indicate a need to align pricing and features with current buyer preferences.
