What I'm Seeing in the Columbus, OH Real Estate Market

Just got back from vacation! It was great to spend a week with Renee in Longboat Key and Dunedin, FL. I was even able to sell a home and negotiate 2 remedy requests while away… It’s not easy taking a vacation as a real agent, the market never stops. Thanks Gary!

What I'm Seeing🧐
🔎The market is a bit inconsistent. This was apparent this week when I received a few phone calls from busy agents asking how my showing count went on a recent listing launch. One home might have 31 showings the first weekend while another in a similar area gets 2. Even the veteran agents are confused by the inconsistency.

🔍Vacations/distractions. April/May were super hot as usual. As school ends we see attention shift to vacations in June which feels like an immediate cooling in activity post Memorial Day.

🔎Over confident sellers. The inconsistent market activity sometimes is a shock to some sellers who think it’s still 2021. “What do you mean I didn’t get 5 offers?” “What do you mean they are asking for repairs?”

🔍The higher end is more active than the lower end. Ex: $800k home with nice updates gets 35 showings and 6 offers. $400k home gets 4 showings and 2 offers.

🔎Not uncommon for the winning bidders of homes in the $400-500k range (first time buyers) to have family financing/downpayment help. Affordability is limiting the traffic count for average homes in the lower price ranges. The buyers that are out there in the lower price ranges are typically very serious and qualified but there are fewer.

🔍It needs to be special to get them off the couch. We continue to see buyers become pickier with homes that need updating/work/remodeling. The homes with the bidding wars are 10s. The homes that get a couple offers are 9s. Homes that are 6’s, 7’s, and 8’s (most homes) are experiencing lower showing counts/offers and potentially price adjustments.

🔎Homes with high architectural/character appeal are outperforming. Think Rush Creek… Mid Century Modern style…and Remodeled vintage homes in Worthington/UA/Clintonville.

🔍First floor living-Homes with first floor owners suites/patio homes are few to come to market but well traveled when they do. The top 50% of the baby boomers seem immune to affordability issues and are out there touring.

This is a theme I am seeing perpetuated all over Youtube and social media. It’s a witty story line… but simply isn’t true in Columbus, OH.

Big houses used to signal success.

Now a lot of them signal mismatch.

The 3,500 sq ft suburban dream was built for a world with cheaper money, bigger households, and buyers who still believed more space automatically meant a better life.

That world is fading.

Gen Z wants flexibility.
Millennials want affordability.
A lot of buyers do not want a house that feels like a second job with granite countertops.

And when the monthly payment looks like a hostage negotiation, “dream home” turns into “hard pass.”

That is the real shift.

Some of these oversized homes are not luxury anymore.
They are expensive maintenance packages waiting for the next owner to say no.

Housing markets do not just crash from bad loans.

Sometimes they crack because the next generation simply does not want what the last generation built.

What do you think happens first:
prices come down, or sellers finally accept the world changed?
