Is the Market Finally Working in Your Favor?

If you hit pause on your moving plans last year, you weren’t alone—70% of buyers did the same. Between limited listings, high prices, and unpredictable interest rates, it made perfect sense to wait.

But times are changing—fast. And if you’ve been waiting for the right moment to jump back in, this might be it.

A Better Market for Buyers and Sellers

More homeowners are jumping back in, and new construction is adding to the mix. That means more homes are hitting the market, giving you more options than we’ve seen in a while.

That’s not just good news for buyers. As a seller, you want enough competition to sell quickly—but not so much that your listing gets lost in a crowd. Right now, you’re in a sweet spot where both buying and selling work in your favor.

According to Realtor.com, inventory has increased 28.5% since this time last year, yet it's still lower than pre-pandemic levels in many areas. That’s a great balance for today’s movers.

As Realtor.com explains: “The fact that inventory is rising year-over-year . . . strongly suggests that national active housing inventory for sale is likely to end the year higher.”

That means if you wait too long, your house could be competing with many more listings later this year.

Is the Market Finally Working in Your Favor?

The market finally working in your favor means more options for buyers and better visibility for sellers. List today, and you’ll still stand out. Shop now, and you’ll see more variety. It’s a rare window where both sides of the market are working in your favor. But it won’t last forever.

If you’ve been waiting on the sidelines for the perfect time—this is your sign.
