Headlines highlighting rising foreclosures have a way of stirring up 2008 flashbacks. But the data says not to panic.

We’re nowhere near what happened back then.

In the first half of 2008, foreclosures were filed on over 1.3 million homes. The first half of this year that number was less than 250k.

Now, seeing any homeowner go through this is hard. There’s no arguing that.

But just looking at the market as a whole, we’re a long way from crash territory – even with the recent uptick. So, don’t let the headlines stir up fear.

Worried about making the most from your sale in today’s market? Here's what to know.

Homes sold with an agent go for $65,000 more, on average, than homes sold without one.

Because maximizing the profit from your sale takes insight into what buyers are willing to pay right now, how much competition you have in your area, and more.

So, let’s connect. We’ll come up with a strategy to get you top dollar.

Has anyone taken the time to explain how much the market’s shifted? Or what it means for your move?

In 2021, nearly every major housing market in the country favored sellers. But now, only about 1 in 3 does.

And that changes the dynamics for you.

If you’re buying, you may have more negotiating power. If you’re selling, pricing and presentation matter.

But here's the catch, it's not the same story everywhere. Some markets are strongly in buyers' favor right now. Others? Sellers are still winning. It all depends on where you live.

That’s why you need a pro. A great agent knows which way our local market is leaning and how that can change everything about your strategy.

If affordability has been the biggest thing standing between you and a home, there’s a little bit of good news.

Asking prices have started to ease – the typical asking price this May came in under where it was a year ago.

And these lower prices are good news for your move – not a sign the market’s in trouble. It points to a market that’s rebalancing with more realistic seller expectations and a little more breathing room for buyers again.

So, if you’ve been waiting for an opening, let’s connect. I’ll help you see what that looks like in our area.
