Prosper Market Update: Why Fall 2025 Is a Smart Time to Sell

Selling Your Prosper Home? Read This First
You may have heard other agents say, “it’s always a good time to sell.”
I don’t agree. Not every season favors the seller — and right now, Prosper’s market is shifting. If selling is on your radar this fall, timing and strategy matter more than ever.
Mortgage Rates Haven’t Really Dropped
After the latest Federal Reserve rate cut, some expected a jump in buyer activity. But mortgage rates didn’t move much. Why? Because lenders had already priced in that cut. As of today, the average 30-year rate is still around 6.19%, almost identical to last year.
That’s keeping buyers cautious — and limiting the number of homeowners trading up. If you’re planning to buy another home after selling, expect tighter lending standards and potentially higher monthly payments.
A New Visa Fee is Quietly Shrinking the Buyer Pool
In Prosper, visa-related relocations drive a large portion of mid-to-high-end sales. That’s why the new $100,000 H-1B visa fee, which took effect September 21, is already impacting showing activity.
In 2024, over 550 H-1B Labor Condition Applications were certified just for jobs in Prosper — that’s more than the total homes sold over the last six months. JP Morgan estimates a 50% drop in new visa applications, and we’re already seeing the effects in open house traffic and buyer urgency.
What This Means for You as a Seller
If you have the flexibility to wait, spring might bring a stronger pool of buyers. But if you must sell now, the key is positioning.
You need to:
Price strategically based on real-time data
Market aggressively across multiple channels
Work with a team who knows how to navigate buyer hesitation
