Dane County condo prices were mixed last month. We don't see this as a sign of falling prices. Rather, it's a reflection of a small data set. January and February always have a low number of closings. Prices at the beginning of the year can experience large swings with either a few high-priced or low-priced sales.
Here's our full report on the Madison area condominium market.
Dane County condo prices
The price per square foot decreased, while the average and median price increased.
- The price per square foot decreased from $228 in February of 2024 to $218 in February of 2025, a drop of 5 percent.

We expect condo prices to rise throughout 2025, based on current supply and demand trends (see below).
New condo listings
A total of 138 Dane County condos were listed for sale last month, down 12 percent from the 156 condos listed for sale a year ago.
Condo accepted offers
A total of 107 Dane County condos went under contract in February, essentially even with the 106 contract signings in February of 2024.
Available condo supply
The number of available condo listings (those without an accepted offer) continues to improve compared to previous years, which is a healthy development for our market. Some newer developments have helped to increase the supply of condos in Dane County.
A total of 190 Dane County condominiums were available for sale on March 14th, which was up from our March snapshots from each of the last 3 years. Still, we have only 1.6 months of supply available for purchase in the Madison area. We will need to continue to grow our condo supply in order for prices to moderate in the years ahead.
Note from the chart below that available listings follow a seasonal pattern. Inventory is lowest during the first half of the year when buyer competition is highest. Supply is highest during the second half of the year when fewer buyers are out searching for a condo.
