If you’re wondering how fast homes are selling in Mandan, North Dakota, you’re really asking about Days on Market (DOM)—how long a home typically sits on the market before it goes under contract.

The latest average Days on Market in Mandan, ND

Using data from the Bismarck Mandan Board of Realtors (pulled 12/29/2025), the average Days on Market in Mandan for November 2025 was 27 days.

That’s just under a month—which (in North Dakota terms) is basically “blink and you missed it.”

Mandan DOM trend (same month comparison)

Here’s how Mandan has looked for November over the last three years:

What that means (in plain English)

• Year-over-year: Mandan is 4 days faster than last November (31 → 27 days, about a 13% improvement).

• Compared to the broader MLS: Mandan was 16 days faster than the Entire MLS in Nov 2025 (27 vs 43). In other words: Mandan moved quicker.

Why “average DOM” isn’t the same as “your DOM”

DOM is a market snapshot, not a promise.

Your home’s DOM will swing based on:

• Price strategy (too high = longer DOM, plus the dreaded “what’s wrong with it?” vibe)

• Condition + presentation (clean, bright, sharp photos, no chaos)

• Location + layout (function sells—especially here)

• Seasonality (winter buyers can be fewer, but often more serious)

What sellers in Mandan should do with this info

If Mandan’s average is hovering around 27 days, here’s the move:

1) Treat week one like your “movie premiere”

Your listing gets its biggest burst of attention early. Price it right and make it look right, and you’re far more likely to win on terms.

2) Don’t chase the market—lead it

If showings are slow early, it’s usually not a “wait longer” problem. It’s a price/presentation/marketing problem.

3) Use DOM as leverage when you buy

A faster market affects what you can negotiate when you’re also purchasing a home in Mandan or Bismarck.
