Today’s market continues to challenge buyers and sellers. Inventory continues to grow. October marks 8 months of inventory growth. During this time we have continued to see buyers waiting on the sidelines. Prior to October, we had 6 months of declining numbers in pending homes. October marks the first month bucking this trend, BUT THE CATEGORY ONLY GREW BY 20 HOMES month over month. These market forces have started to put downward pressure on sales prices. It is an incredible time to buy. As of October 15th, there are 10,896 available homes in the 8 county metro area. With so many options buyers have unprecedented choices, AND an ability to negotiate price and terms. That said, we are still helping motivated sellers move their homes in this market. So much so that our company is beating the market by 14%. If you know of someone looking to buy or sell, please connect us. I am happy help.
