This brings inventory to its highest point since early Q2. Yet, despite more choices, pending home sales have dipped by 1.1% to a six-month low, as elevated housing costs and mortgage rates near 7% continue to keep many buyers on the sidelines. The median home-sale price has edged up 1.9% year-over-year, now above $400K.<\/p>\n<p>As someone who\u2019s guided clients through many shifting markets, I know increased inventory and softer demand open up opportunities for buyers to negotiate\u2014whether it\u2019s for price reductions or concessions, especially on homes that have been listed a few weeks. Sellers are benefiting from realistic pricing that reflects today\u2019s market, rather than chasing last year\u2019s numbers. My approach is always to blend data-driven insight with personal attention, helping you understand how these trends can shape your next move. If you\u2019re weighing your options, now is a time where expertise and strategy make all the difference.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the past four weeks ending August 23, we\u2019ve seen a slight uptick in new listings across the US\u2014up 0.4% weekly\u2014with total homes for sale rising by 0.5%.
