🔹 If You’re Thinking About Selling: Home prices are up, and demand is still strong despite a slight dip in sales. If you’ve been considering selling, now is the time to maximize your home’s value before inventory rises further. A well-marketed and properly priced home will stand out in this market.
🔹 If You’re Looking to Buy: More inventory means more choices! With home prices rising, securing a home now could mean building long-term equity. Plus, with fewer homes under contract compared to last year, you may have more negotiating power.
