Hard to believe, isn't it? 😳😳This happened in my lifetime. I was 14 years old in 1974.

❄️ Lake County Market Update – January 2026 ❄️

Here’s what happened as we kicked off the new year:

🏡 1,929 homes available — down 3% from December
📝 430 homes under contract — up 29% 👏
🔑 311 homes sold — down 38%

Now before anyone panics about that 38% drop in sales… take a breath. January closings reflect contracts written in November and December — and those are always slower months because of the holidays.

The real headline here?
📈 Pending sales jumped 29%.

That means buyers came out swinging in January. They’re writing offers. They’re serious. They’re ready.

Inventory is still tight, and motivated buyers are active. That’s a strong signal heading into spring. 🌷

If you’ve been wondering whether to list before the spring rush… this might be your sweet spot. Less competition, serious buyers, and momentum building.

🍂 Lake County November Market Update 🍂

Here’s what the numbers are telling us as we head into the holiday season:

📉 Inventory down 10% → 2,145 homes available

📉 Homes under contract down 2% → 483

📉 Closed sales down 26% → 418

👉 So what’s going on?
Nothing dramatic—this is classic seasonal slowdown. Every single year, activity dips in November and December as people shift into holiday mode. Fewer new listings, fewer showings, fewer closings.

The real story here is that pending contracts barely moved (-2%), which means buyers are still out there, just being more selective—and sellers who price correctly are still getting offers.

If you’re planning a move in 2025, this is actually a great time to:

prep your home for an early-spring listing, or

get ahead of competition as a buyer while inventory is quieter.

If you want to know what these trends mean for your neighborhood or price point, just message me. I’ll break it down without the jargon.
