💥 Monday Market Update | Fort Wayne Real Estate💥 With School District Spotlights💥
📊 This Week vs 30 Days Ago:
🏘️ 96 New Listings (🔺 9.1%)
🔑 74 Homes Sold (🔻 32.1%)
💲 110 Price Changes (🔺 2.8%)
🔄 12 Back on Market (🔺 9.1%)
📝 71 Pending Sales (🔻 19.3%)
📦 835 Total Inventory (🔺 3.9%)
What does this mean for YOU?
🙋 Buyers: Inventory is up almost 4% from a month ago, and new listings are up too, so you have more homes to choose from. Pending sales are down about 19%, which means less competition for each home. That gives you more room to negotiate on price and terms. Well-priced homes are still moving, so get pre-approved and be ready to act.
🏠 Sellers: Homes sold are down about a third and pending sales are down nearly 20% from a month ago, so fewer buyers are going under contract. With more homes on the market, buyers can be choosy. Accurate pricing from day one, strong presentation, and flexibility on terms will help your home stand out.
🔭 Looking Ahead: The market is cooling as we move deeper into fall, with listings and inventory building while sales and pendings ease. Expect a more balanced, buyer-friendly pace through the colder months, where pricing and presentation make the biggest difference for sellers.
