As we look ahead to 2025, the housing market in the 417 area is shaping up to be an exciting time for building your dream home.
With steady growth in Springfield and nearby cities like Ozark, Nixa, and Rogersville, new construction homes are becoming the preferred choice for those seeking modern designs, energy efficiency, and high-quality craftsmanship.
Here’s what to expect in the coming year and how you can start your journey to the perfect home
2025: The Year to Build Your Dream Home
The 417 area is experiencing steady population growth, with more families and professionals relocating for the region’s thriving job market and quality of life. This means an increased demand for new construction homes as people look for energy-efficient, modern layouts and the ability to settle in well-planned communities.
At Bussell Building, we’ve already seen an uptick in interest in our neighborhoods, such as Valley Ridge in Ozark and Fall Creek in Rogersville. In 2025, we predict this trend will only grow, especially as more buyers prioritize homes with the latest features and designs.
Affordability Will Remain a Key Factor
While national trends suggest potential increases in housing costs due to inflation and materials, the Springfield metro area is expected to remain an affordable market compared to other regions.
For buyers in the 417 area, this means continued opportunities to find homes that fit their budgets without sacrificing quality.
Bussell Building is committed to offering homes that combine value with superior craftsmanship. Our floor plans are designed to maximize space, efficiency, and style while keeping affordability in mind.
Neighborhood Living Will Be in High Demand
As more buyers seek communities with a blend of convenience and tranquility, we expect neighborhoods in areas like Nixa and Battlefield to remain highly desirable. Proximity to schools, parks, and local amenities will continue to drive demand in these areas, making them ideal for families and professionals alike.
Our neighborhoods, like Forest Heights in Nixa and Green Ridge in Battlefield, are designed to meet this demand. With features like thoughtfully planned lots, outdoor spaces, and energy-efficient homes, these communities are poised to attract new buyers in 2025.
Key Features Buyers Will Look For in 2025
As housing trends evolve, these are the features likely to dominate the 2025 market:
- Energy Efficiency: High-efficiency HVAC systems, double-pane windows, and advanced insulation.
- Modern Kitchens: Granite countertops, dovetail cabinets, and stainless steel appliances.
- Flexible Floor Plans: Open-concept designs with extra living spaces for home offices or recreational areas.
- Outdoor Living: Decks, patios, and spacious yards for entertaining and relaxation.
- Neighborhood Amenities: Proximity to schools, parks, and shopping for ultimate convenience.
Energy Efficiency Will Be a Top Priority
Energy-efficient homes are no longer a luxury—they’re a necessity. With utility costs rising, buyers are looking for homes that help reduce expenses while minimizing environmental impact.
This means more demand for homes with features like high-efficiency HVAC systems, double-pane windows, and advanced insulation in the 417 market.
At Bussell Building, we’re ahead of the curve, exceeding code requirements to ensure our homes meet the highest standards of energy efficiency. It’s one of the many reasons our homes stand out in the 417 market.
Steady Interest Rates Will Benefit Buyers
While interest rates fluctuated in recent years, many experts predict they will stabilize in 2025. This is great news for buyers, as steady rates can make financing a new home more accessible.
For those considering building or buying a new home, locking in a favorable rate could be a key factor in making their dream a reality.
