If you’ve been watching the housing market, you might be wondering…
“Is now a good time to buy or sell?”

Let’s break it down in simple terms.

What the Market Is Doing Right Now

Right now, the market is shifting—but not crashing.

Here’s what stands out:

• More homes are for sale
  Active listings are up to 30,608, higher than last month and last year. That means buyers have more choices.
• Homes are taking longer to sell
  The average time on market is now 82–93 days, which is slower than last year.
• Prices are softening slightly
  • Average price dropped to about $622K
  • Price per square foot is down a bit
  • But… prices are still higher than they were a few years ago
• Inventory is growing
  We’re at about 3.3 months of supply
  (6 months = balanced market)

👉 Translation: We’re moving away from a crazy seller’s market… toward something more balanced.

What This Means for Buyers

This is actually good news for buyers.

• You have more options
• You’re not competing as aggressively
• Sellers are more open to negotiations

That could mean:

• Price reductions
• Closing cost help
• Better terms overall

👉 Buyers finally have a little breathing room again

What This Means for Sellers

This doesn’t mean it’s a bad time to sell…
But it does mean strategy matters more than ever.

• Homes are still selling (7,949 per month is strong)
• But buyers are pickier
• And pricing your home right is critical

👉 The biggest mistake right now?  Overpricing and hoping the market will catch up.

The homes that win today are:

• Priced correctly
• Show well
• Marketed well

The Big Picture

This market isn’t “hot” or “cold”… it’s normalizing.

• Not the frenzy of 2021
• Not a crash either
• Just a more balanced, realistic market

And honestly… that’s healthier for everyone.

Final Thought

Whether you’re buying or selling, the key right now is understanding the shift and adjusting your strategy.

Because the people who win in this market…are the ones who move smart, not fast.
