Overall the market over the past 9 months has remained very stable. This in itself is highly unusual! We typically have strong markets in the Spring and Fall, but those markets didn't really materialize this year. We have built up some higher inventory levels, but as we go into the holiday season those are likely to decrease as homes are pulled from the market. Anecdotally, we are seeing more buyers come into the market. This could be due to pent up demand or more stable job prospects, but buyers do seem to be preparing for buying in the Spring. We’re fairly optimistic that 2024 may start turning back into a normal market cycle. Schedule a consultation if you are considering making your real estate moves in the new year, let’s get the ball rolling!
