This is my one minute market update for the Metro Detroit area.

Most of our private clients want to know 2 things about the real estate market-

1. Has the value of my property gone up or down? And number 2. If I were to sell, how long would it take?

For the month of October 2024 the average sales price was $293,000 which is about an 11% increase over October 2023.

On average homes are sitting on the market for 28 days, which is a slight increase over last year when they were at 25 days on market.

Real estate is hyper local so this may be better or worse than how your neighborhood is performing.

If you’re curious about what’s happening in your direct local area, what your neighbors home sold for, or you’d like a home equity review of your property in todays market, shoot me a DM today!

Selling your HOME? 🏡 Hire an AGENT that does these 3 things! 👇👇👇

1. Your agent should have a complete MARKETING plan including home prep BEFORE your home hits the market!

2. Your agent should INVEST in your home with their OWN MONEY on things like staging, cleaning, pre-listing inspection, professional photography, and advertising!

3. Your agent should be an EXPERT NEGOTIATOR when calls start coming in and have a STRATEGY in place to encourage multiple offers!

Fill out the form below or shoot me a DM and I'll explain why we consistently sell homes for more than 6% higher than the average agent on the MLS and we've got the stats (and 5 star reviews) to prove it! 📈

The road to home ownership doesn't have to be a bumpy one if you hire the right agent! 😱

After two years of a crazy seller's market here in Michigan, buyers are starting to win. We're finally seeing some price reductions, seller concessions, and contingent offers being accepted. Never give up!

Okay, be honest... how fast can you actually drive over the speed limit before you get pulled over? I always assumed people drove maybe 5 mph or so over. Anything beyond that comes with risk. It's kind of like the real estate market, actually. In a normal balanced market, homes typically appreciate around 2-4% a year (give or take).

But in the last couple years, home values here in Metro Detroit have risen by 10-20%. It wasn't sustainable. Like driving 20 over the speed limit, it's fun while it lasted, but eventually, you will get caught.

Here's the surprising thing: many folks expect home values to decline this year. But that's probably not going to happen, even with interest rates on the rise. There's still WAY too much demand relative to the actual supply of homes. It's economics 101. So, while things will get a little bit more balanced (at least compared to last year), we're still technically "speeding" a bit.

Home values will continue to slowly appreciate, just not as fast as before.
So, as the old saying goes, it's never a bad time to buy real estate IF you plan to buy and hold. Time in the market matters more than timing the market. So don't wait to buy a home. Buy a home... and wait!

Oh, and I'd like to add a friendly disclaimer to always obey traffic laws. 😉

Time for a history lesson. Anytime someone uses the phrase "plain vanilla," as if it somehow means boring or unoriginal, I kind of laugh to myself. Apparently, folks don't know the real history of vanilla.

For starters, it's the second most expensive spice in the world ( #1 is saffron). Vanilla is the only edible fruit out of 35,000 species of orchid. Frankly, it's a statistical miracle. It requires a special tropical climate to grow, and each flower blooms for, wait for it... one day.

Pound for pound, vanilla seeds are worth more than silver.

Historically, only kings could afford such a rare delicacy as vanilla.

Not to mention the invention of ice cream itself, which would have required sending an expedition to the mountains to bring back ice during a hot summer. And yet here I am, casually enjoying this frozen dessert flavored with one of the most miraculous spices in the world.

You may call it "plain vanilla." I call it a miracle.

Modern life is pretty amazing if you have an attitude of gratitude. 🙂

P.S.
Is there anything better than an ice cream cone from Dairy King? Rhetorical question... no, there's not.
