Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Athens real estate market, updated for October 2025. *
The typical home value in Athens is projected to be $247,700 for the month of October. September’s finalized data reported the typical value of a home in the city to be $245,000—up 72.54% over the previous 12 months. For comparison, county-level data pegged home values at $220,000 in Athens County for the most recent reporting period. That number is expected to float around $210,200 in October.
Athens had 10 new listings and 21 listings that went under contract in September, decreasing the area’s total available inventory to 30—down 14.29% from the previous month. Inventory is projected to have further decreased in October.
Of those 30 active listings, 16.67% reduced their price in the month of September. The median listing price for homes in Athens fell 11.33% from August to September, bringing the current median listing price to $246,500. Based on projected data for October, listing prices may continue to fall.
The number of days that homes have been on the market prior to going under contract rose year-over-year. In September 2025, the median time for a listed property to go pending was 34 days, compared to 19 days in September 2024. In recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be increasing. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this October.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Athens offers residents a welcoming, livable community with a thriving arts scene, a walkable downtown filled with local shops and eateries, and abundant parks and cultural opportunities that foster connection and growth.
Athens balances college-town energy with small-city warmth, making it a place where weekend farmers markets, indie music, and outdoor escapes fit neatly into everyday life. The brick-lined Uptown core hums with local roasters, bakeries, and storied venues, while Athens County roots the community with festivals, heritage sites, and a proud Appalachian identity.
Academics and innovation sit front and center at Ohio University, whose galleries, lectures, and Division I athletics spill into the city’s cultural calendar. Families appreciate the well-regarded Athens City School District, with modernized facilities and a strong slate of arts and STEM opportunities. On the residential front, the West Side offers leafy streets and classic homes, while nearby The Plains provides additional housing options minutes from campus and Uptown.
Recreation is woven into daily routines. Kayakers, trail runners, and dog walkers fan out across Strouds Run State Park, while cyclists cruise the Hockhocking Adena Bikeway toward Nelsonville for art walks and seasonal events. When you want big-city concerts or flights, Columbus is an easy drive, yet it’s equally tempting to stay put for gallery nights, the Athena Cinema, and a standout dining scene powered by local farms.
Whether you’re eyeing a historic porch, a low-maintenance condo, or an investment near campus, Athens offers a thoughtful mix of lifestyle and value. If you’re ready to make a move, Agent Pronto can connect buyers and sellers with a top local real estate pro to navigate the market with confidence.
