📈 What This Data Means for Sun Prairie Market Participants:

🏠 Sellers: With ultra-low inventory (1.82 months) and homes selling in just 8 days, well-priced properties should move rapidly.

🔮 Sun Prairie Market Outlook - Fall 2025:

With severely constrained inventory (1.82 months vs. 6+ for balanced market), Sun Prairie will likely continue favoring sellers through fall 2025. The combination of excellent schools, Madison proximity, and limited new construction suggests inventory shortages will persist. Expect continued price per square foot growth, though overall median price may remain stable as market adjusts to interest rate environment. Spring 2026 traditionally brings increased activity as families time moves with school calendar.
