Home buyers get ready to go some open houses next week. A Realtor.com report, says the sweet spot, is the week of September 27—October 3 will be this year’s best time for home buyers.
It all has to do with typical seasonal patterns in the housing market.
During the spring and summer, buying activity is high since families want to make the move before school starts.
But with fall, you have less competition. Homes remain on the market, meaning some price drops from the height of the season.
