Northwestern Wisconsin home prices dipped lower during November 2025, according to the latest market data from Wisconsin REALTORS©. Here’s a look at the trends, along with our own insights!
Statewide, home sales activity fell about 9% in November compared to the prior year. Over the past 12 months, sales activity declined in nearly every Wisconsin statistical region. The exception was our North region, which saw a year-to-date transaction gain of 1.4%. Despite fewer sales taking place in most areas of the state, the Wisconsin median home price increased 4.8%, reaching $325,000.
In Barron County, November home sale activity declined a bit compared to a year ago. Barron County’s median home sale price in November was $278,100, a drop of about 5.5% compared to November 2024.
Overall, Barron County home prices have been trending higher on a year-to-date basis, but the momentum has varied. On average, Barron County homes are spending about 74 days on the market before going under contract.
