Understanding the Trend: Why Price Cuts Are Becoming Less Common in the Real Estate Market. 214-906-4812
According to housing wire. So far in 2024, fewer homes are taking price cuts than in 2023, and this trend is on the verge of breaking below the 2023 lows in price cuts percentages. While weekly inventory is still falling, we have year-over-year growth in total active listing and new listings data. This calls into question a mortgage rate lock down, as mortgage rates are also higher year over year.
What is all this data pointing to? Well it looks like we are going in the right direction. Weekly new listing data for last week over the last several years:
2024: 51,875
2023: 44,533
2022: 45,594
Inventory remains low and prices stable to higher in most markets. Including DFW. So get a plan if you need a home. Waiting and timing the market is not a good option.
