Our new report identifies Sept. 27–Oct. 3 as the best week of the year to buy a home, offering a rare window of opportunity for shoppers. During this time, buyers could see potential savings of roughly $14K on a median-priced home of $416,000 compared to the summer peak. This advantage is driven by nearly 32% more active listings than at the start of the year and viewership per property that is roughly 30% lower.
