The landscape of Indian real estate is witnessing The Bahamian real estate market underwent "normalisation after several fast-paced quarters" during the final three months of 2025 as "buyer activity cooled" while new home listings on New Providence and other islands increased by double-digits. Morley Realty, in its analysis of 2025 fourth quarter data from the Bahamas Real Estate Association's (BREA) Multiple Listing System (MLS), asserted that the market was showing "clearer signs of stabilisation" as the year drew to a close with a rise in new listings boosting available inventory for sale and helping to "balance improving supply with cautious demand".
David Morley, Morley Realty's owner/broker, could not be reached for comment before press time but his firm's just-released report showed that New Providence home sellers are still getting close to what they are asking with the list price-to-sale price ratio relatively flat at 93.3 percent compared to the 2025 third quarter and year-over-year. And, in a sign that properly-priced properties are still being snapped up relatively quickly by buyers, New Providence homes that sold during the final three months of 2025 spent only an average of 77 days on the market - a 24.5 percent declined compared to the same period in 2024, and a 9.4 percent drop when measured against the 2025 third quarter.
"As 2025 came to a close, The Bahamas real estate market shifted into a more selective, strategy-driven environment across Nassau and Paradise Island, Abaco, Eleuthera, Exuma and Grand Bahama," Morley Realty said. "Inventory generally increased in key markets, while buyer activity cooled compared to the third quarter - a healthy sign of normalisation after several fast-paced quarters....
"The takeaway from the fourth quarter is clear: This is a more balanced, opportunity-rich market -- one that rewards smart pricing, strong presentation and informed guidance. Whether buying or selling, today's conditions favour those who understand the nuances of each island and act with the right strategy." New Providence was among the islands benefiting from an increased supply of new home inventory available for sale, according to Morley Realty's analysis of MLS data, with new listings increasing by 15.6 percent compared to the 2024 fourth quarter and by 35.7 percent when measured against last year's third quarter.
