Shortly after Superbowl weekend is when our market sees the biggest gains in demand. We'll keep an eye on this to see if the trend stays true in 2023.
Market volatility vs Interest rate volatility
There is no denying that the increase in borrowing costs have created a decrease in buyer demand in our valley and most of the nation.
Our market has seen shifts that are moving with the interest rate changes (slow downs when the rates increase, and more showings and demand when there are dips).
Resale home inventory is declining in our valley
This could be due to the high number of listing agreements expiring at the end of 2022. This is another data point we will keep an eye on.
The Buyer's Advantage
New home unit sales are dropping. This has been an advantage for those who need to make a move because of the deep incentive some builders are offering.
We learn what is important to you and come up with a custom strategy with you on how to work out the best deals for you.

- Currently, rates are at 4 month lows and are bringing those who need to move (for love or money, and also in our market those who are retiring) to start shopping around for homes again. Our listings are getting higher traffic, and our latest one received multiple offers over the weekend and is now under contract.
