📉 [Market Minute] What’s happening in the local scene right now...

Are home prices going up or down? It depends on where you look.

Over the past year, prices in Chicago climbed almost 7%. In Seattle, they dipped about 1.6%. That’s a nearly 9-point gap between two major cities.

Look at little closer, though. Home prices are rising in 13 of the 19 major cities on this chart. And where prices are down, the dips are small (less than 2%).

So, this isn’t a crash. It’s just a market normalizing after overheating during the pandemic. And that’s hitting some areas differently than others.

Here’s what it really means. Your local market matters.

If you’re selling where prices are still rising, you may not need to cut your price. And if you’re buying where prices are softer, you may have more room to negotiate.

If you’re wondering whether buying makes sense for you right now, let’s look at the numbers together – and what owning a home could mean for you in the years ahead.

Are you struggling to sell your home?

🏡 You're not alone!

Many sellers face challenges in today's price-sensitive market.

According to recent data, 42% of homes are experiencing price cuts, and 38% sold below asking price in major markets. Here are three costly mistakes to avoid: 1️⃣ Waiting too long to lower your asking price. 2️⃣ Refusing to reset your price expectations based on current market conditions. 3️⃣ Making too small of a price reduction. Remember, the market is telling you what buyers are willing to pay.

Listen to it!

If you're considering selling, let me help you navigate these challenges with my expertise in the Long Island real estate market.
