🏡 REAL ESTATE TRENDS TO WATCH THIS FALL
The market is changing—and buyers and sellers are both feeling it.
📈 Home prices are still strong
Prices continue to rise in Rhode Island, even as the market becomes more balanced.
🏠 More homes are hitting the market
Providence-Warwick inventory is up significantly from last year, giving buyers more choices.
💰 Mortgage rates still matter
Rates around the mid-to-high 6% range are keeping some buyers on the sidelines.
⏳ Homes may take a little longer to sell
Buyers have more opportunities to compare homes, making pricing and presentation more important for sellers.
🎯 Pricing strategically is key
The days of simply putting a home on the market and expecting multiple offers aren’t guaranteed. The right price, preparation and marketing can make a huge difference.
✨ The bottom line:
It’s not quite the frantic market we saw a few years ago—but desirable homes that are priced correctly are still getting attention.
