CRMLS Matrix | Stars and Stripes Realty
As we wrapped up Thanksgiving week here in beautiful Madera County, the real estate market continued to show steady movement and strong signals of opportunity. Even during a holiday week—when activity typically slows—our mountain and foothill communities demonstrated vibrant buyer engagement, fresh inventory, and strategic listing adjustments that benefit both buyers and sellers.
This week's data showcases a healthy blend of new listings, pending activity, closed sales, and price improvements that make this season an excellent time to make your next real estate move.
Let’s dive into the highlights.

Buyers looking to enter the mountain and foothill lifestyle have exciting new options to explore this week:
Oakhurst delivered 2 new active listings, offering more selection in one of the most in-demand areas near Yosemite.
Fish Camp and Wawona, two communities treasured for their forested charm and proximity to the national park, each added 1 new listing, perfect for those looking for a cabin retreat or investment opportunity.
The arrival of new inventory during a holiday week is a powerful indication that sellers feel confident—and buyers should take advantage of homes that might receive less competition than usual this time of year.
Even with family gatherings and travel, motivated buyers continued making moves:
Oakhurst, Coarsegold, and Ahwahnee each recorded 1 active under contract/pending listing, with Coarsegold also posting a second pending home.
This shows that buyers are not waiting for the new year—they’re taking advantage of current pricing, available inventory, and the desire to secure a home before 2026.
For sellers, this means serious buyers are still actively searching and writing offers.
Despite the holiday, buyers and sellers still pushed transactions across the finish line:
Coarsegold once again led with 2 closed listings, reinforcing its position as one of the strongest and most consistent markets in the region.
Steady closings this late in November highlight a market that is healthy, resilient, and supported by motivated buyers.
A few strategic price changes this week helped boost visibility and attract interest:
Coarsegold recorded 2 price changes,
Ahwahnee posted 1 price improvement,
Wawona also recorded 1 price adjustment,
Raymond showed 1 canceled/withdrawn listing, opening space for new inventory in the coming weeks.
Price changes benefit both sides—buyers gain improved affordability, while sellers benefit from stronger engagement and renewed interest.
Even during a traditionally slow period:
✨ Homes are still moving into pending status.
✨ Buyers are writing offers across multiple communities.
✨ Price improvements are strengthening listing visibility.
✨ New listings are drawing attention from active, year-end buyers.
If you're considering selling, this is an excellent moment—competition is lighter, but buyer intent remains high. Your home could stand out and sell faster than expected.
For buyers thinking of waiting until 2026, consider this:
✔ New listings are still coming online even during the holidays.
✔ Motivated sellers may offer favorable terms.
✔ Competition is low, giving buyers more negotiating power.
✔ Areas like Oakhurst, Coarsegold, and Ahwahnee continue to show healthy activity without overwhelming demand.
Whether you're seeking a mountain getaway, full-time residence, or long-term investment property, this market still offers excellent opportunities.
Madera County and its surrounding mountain communities continue to shine with opportunity. Whether you're buying or selling, the end of the year might be the perfect time to start the process.
