CURRENT MARKET CONDITIONS
Transitioning Market: As of December 27, 2025, Christina has 168 active listings with a $344,900 median price (average $352,143) and homes averaging 121 days on market. Inventory is relatively tight at 1.4 months, but the 121-day average plus 64 price reductions (38.1%) shows the market is active yet very price-sensitive: buyers are engaged, but they’re not rewarding homes that come on stretched. With median and average close together, this market is being driven more by the “core” price band than by outliers—so accurate pricing and condition matter a lot. Practical takeaway: sellers should aim for a market-tested list price and strong presentation to avoid reductions, while buyers should target stale or recently reduced listings where leverage is most likely, even in a seller-leaning environment.

★★★★★
“I can’t say enough about how great Vincent, Jane, and the whole Cyr team are. They treat you like family. They keep in touch with their clients through client appreciation events, getting together for lunch or dinner, and the occasional phone call or email. They show you that they truly care by staying in touch. Even through the challenges that 2020 have brought, they have still been able to provide exceptional service. We looked at homes responsibly through the pandemic, bought a house, and sold a condo, all without missing a beat. They are simply the best.”
