What It Means for Buyers
Typical home values have cooled slightly over the past year (-2.0%), and about 23% of active listings had a price cut in September. Homes are sitting a median of 74 days, so you usually have time to tour, compare and negotiate instead of rushing into an offer. Asking for seller-paid closing costs or a repair credit is often realistic in this kind of market.
What It Means for Sellers
With 2,513 active listings (+3.1% year over year) and a median of 74 days on market, buyers have choices. Pricing right from day one matters more than ever, since overpriced homes are the ones that end up with price cuts. Good photos, small repairs and a fresh, clean home help you stand out.
My Tip This Month
New construction tip: always get an independent home inspection on a new build, including before your one-year builder warranty ends.
