Quarter at a glance
The spring quarter that grew on every line that matters.
Cedar City’s second quarter ran cleanly in one direction: bigger. More inventory, more new listings, more closings, more dollar volume, higher median, higher average. Year over year, almost every line in the data moved meaningfully forward. The single softening: days on market crept longer, the natural consequence of a deeper shelf.
That combination, growth everywhere except in the speed of any one sale, is what a maturing market looks like. The pace eases off because buyers finally have choices, but transactions and prices keep advancing.

What changed since last year
Volume, median, supply, demand. All up.
Set Q2 2025 next to Q2 2024 and the lines all point up together. Closed sales twenty-one percent higher, dollar volume twenty-nine percent higher, median seven percent higher, average seven percent higher. New listings and active inventory both expanded by double digits.
The only line that "softened" was time on market, and even that softening is healthy in context. Last spring’s tighter shelf produced faster sales because there was nothing else to look at. This spring’s deeper shelf produced more sales at higher prices, just at a more deliberate cadence.
If you are selling
A genuinely strong quarter for sellers, with a higher prep bar.
Q2 was the best spring for Cedar City sellers since the peak years, with one important asterisk: presentation and pricing discipline mattered more than ever. The market rewarded prepared homes with stronger prices than last spring, and it punished hopeful ones with longer time on market. The gap between the two widened.
More to choose from, more time to choose. Prices are not waiting.
For Q2 buyers, the inventory expansion was real and useful. But buyers who waited for a price reset got a market that climbed instead. The healthier choice this quarter was deciding what fit and writing a clean offer when it appeared.
Cedar City’s spring quarter runs on a recognizable cycle: April warms up, May fills the shelf, June closes the biggest pipeline. This year ran that cycle in full, with the wrinkle that supply ran ahead of demand’s ability to absorb it instantly. The data tells you that not as a price collapse but as a slightly longer wait between list and sold.
Looking ahead
Q3 inherits a deep shelf, a strong pipeline, and one open question.
The third quarter starts with more under-contract homes than last year and substantially more active inventory. The summer peak window is short here, and what happens in July to days on market will tell us whether the spring expansion is durable or whether the deeper shelf needs the rest of the year to clear.
