One of the first things buyers look at isn't always the price. It's the days on market. ποΈ
Days on market measures how long a property has been available for sale, but buyers often attach emotional meaning to that number.
A newer listing can create excitement and urgency, while a home that's been available longer may trigger questions about pricing, condition, or competition.
The reality is that there are many reasons a home may sit longer, and not all of them are negative. Pricing strategy, market conditions, seasonality, and inventory levels all play a role. π‘
Understanding what buyers are thinking can help sellers position their homes more effectively and help buyers spot opportunities others may overlook.
