In Mid-Q3, new listings across the country ticked up around 3% month over month, reaching their highest point in over four years. Overall homes for sale rose by about 4%, the most we\u2019ve seen since 2020. Even with this extra inventory, buyer demand held steady: pending sales didn\u2019t budge, closed sales slipped just 1%, and prices climbed to a new period record. Mortgage rates nudged near 7%.<\/p>\n<p>Why the change? More homeowners felt comfortable listing as the rate lock-in effect eased up, while life transitions\u2014like job moves or family changes\u2014prompted others to sell. Sellers also adjusted to a slower pace, giving buyers more room to weigh their options. By mid-Q3, about 60% of U.S. homes were selling below their original asking price. That gave buyers a real opportunity to negotiate on price, repairs, or closing costs, or even walk away if things didn\u2019t feel right.<\/p>\n<p>Having moved many times myself, I know how overwhelming these shifts can feel\u2014especially in a market that\u2019s more buyer-friendly but still carries high costs and steady demand. My role is to guide you through these ups and downs with empathy, clear communication, and a proactive plan, so your next chapter starts off on the right foot.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lately, we\u2019ve seen U.S. housing supply reach a six-year high\u2014a big shift for anyone searching or selling right now.
