When most people picture negotiating on a home, they picture one number: the list price. You offer somewhere under the asking price, the seller counters, you settle in the middle, and whoever gives up the most ground "loses." For a lot of buyers, that back-and-forth over the sale price is the negotiation.

It's only a fraction of it. The price is the headline. The real negotiation happens in the terms underneath it, and right now those terms are where the money is. Buyers have more room to ask than they've had in years. The market has tilted in their favor, and it's showing up at the closing table: in 2025, 62.2% of buyers paid below the list price, and the typical below-list buyer saved 7.9% — about $31,592 — the biggest discount in over a decade.¹

So here's what actually separates the buyers who come out ahead. It isn't the ones who push hardest on the price. It's the ones who understand everything that's on the table, and know which things are worth asking for.

Multigenerational living isn't a fallback anymore — it's a deliberate strategy more families are choosing. 🏡

According to NAR, 14% of recent buyers purchased a multigenerational home. These families aren't making the best of a bad situation — they're rethinking what "home" needs to do.

Why families are choosing this path:
• Shared costs make homeownership more accessible
• Caregiving support for aging parents or young children
• Remote work makes living near family more feasible
• Daily support and shared routines that strengthen connections

If this is something your family is considering, the key is getting the strategy right from the start — the right property, clear financial structure, and honest conversations before you sign.

A little design moment from that was too good not to share … Repost from

Furniture design duo Lindsey Price and Donnie Criswell spent more than a year perfecting their Vail lounge chair—a minimalist perch with a slim, powder-coated steel frame, leather back straps, and cloudlike cushion. But it was worth the wait: “Vail emerged as the clear winner [of our collection],” Price says, noting that the couple’s brand, , has released several iterations of the bestselling piece since its debut in 2019.

The newest edition, pictured here, is a patio-ready version outfitted with weather-resistant nylon straps and durable, machine-washable upholstery. In other words, it's a seat fit for the rugged-yet-refined Colorado lifestyle.
