T
he Greater Harrisburg Association of REALTORS (GHAR) reported a surge in inventory across Cumberland, Dauphin, and Perry counties in its May 2025 housing market report. Active listings reached a five-year high, providing buyers with more options as the market heats up.

    According to GHAR President Jimmy Koury, "Inventory is slowly climbing, giving buyers more choices while homes priced right continue to sell quickly." The report highlights encouraging signs across the region, with pending sales remaining strong and setting the stage for a busy summer in real estate.
