Online searches for “homes for sale” are up more than 20% since last year.

Now, that doesn’t mean buyers are flooding the market. But it does mean interest is picking back up.

If you’ve been wondering whether anyone’s even looking right now, this is your sign the market isn’t frozen.

There are buyers out there doing their homework and preparing for their next move.

If you want your house in front of those people, let’s talk strategy.

Some more homeowners are finally making their move, even if it means giving up that 3% mortgage.

Data from the FHFA shows the share of homeowners with rates under 3% is shrinking slightly, while more are taking on rates above 6%. Sure, some of the people with rates above 6% are first-time buyers, but others are people just like you who decided to move anyways.

Why? Because life doesn’t wait for perfect timing.
Families grow, jobs change, priorities shift, and a house that once fit perfectly may not fit at all anymore.

And with mortgage rates easing from earlier highs and forecast to dip slightly more in 2026, moving is becoming a little easier again.

If you’ve been holding off, maybe it’s time to ask: Is your low rate worth staying somewhere that no longer fits your life?

DM me if you want to talk through your options or see what's out there in your price point.

People are going to talk about the housing market when they get together this holiday season. And you’re going to hear a lot of different opinions.

Make sure you’re getting your information from a true expert. Here are the real answers to the top 3 questions that may be on your mind:

“Will I be able to find a home if I want to move?”
Yes, there are more homes for sale now than there have been in years, giving buyers more options and sellers more places to go.

“Should I wait for prices to come down?”
Experts aren’t projecting a big decline. While prices will always vary by area, nationally they’re expected to keep rising for at least the next 5 years.

“Will I ever be able to afford a house?”
Affordability is slowly improving as mortgage rates ease and price growth cools, making monthly payments a bit more manageable than they were even just a few months ago.

Clear answers = confident decisions

Searches of “Homes for Sale” Up 20% Since Last Year

The market isn’t frozen. Online searches of “homes for sale” are up over 20% since last year. Let’s talk if you want to get your house in front of these buyers.

Want to find the best deal possible on a home right now? Here’s one way to do it.

Take a look at the homes that have been sitting on the market the longest. Because the longer a house sits, the less it sells for.

And the data proves it. When a home lingers, sellers usually get more flexible.

That’s where buyers are scoring real savings. Even if a house sells for 94% of its asking price, that's roughly $24,000 off of a median priced home.

If you want to stretch your budget and find the deals other buyers overlook, let’s chat.

So many buyers who moved this year keep saying the same thing: they’re thankful they did.

Not because market conditions were perfect, but because they needed something different out of their home.

Some are grateful for a first place to truly make their own. Others are thankful for more space, or less to maintain.

And many are especially thankful to be closer to the people who matter most.
When your home lines up with what you need, every day feels lighter – and it’s something you appreciate more than you expect.

If you’re feeling that pull toward a home that fits your life better, let’s explore what’s possible.

Here’s something anyone torn between renting or buying needs to realize.

While renting can feel much less expensive right now, it also means missing out on the long-term wealth you build when you own.

This chart makes it clear. No matter when someone buys, homeowners end up building far more wealth than renters. And that’s true even after you factor in things like repairs and property taxes.

That’s because every mortgage payment adds to your equity, while every rent payment is money you never get back.

If you’ve been wondering whether you should rent or buy, this is your reminder that owning is a better long-term play.

Whether we’ve recently worked together, or it’s been a while, I’m so grateful for your trust and support this year.

Helping people find a place to call home is truly at the heart of this work — and it’s something to be thankful for every single day.

If anything comes up (big or small) for you or your loved ones, or if you just have a question about the market, reach out anytime and support is just a message away.

Wishing you a season filled with comfort, good food, and all the things that make home feel special.

A lot of sellers are going to hit pause right now and wait to list until 2026… which is exactly why this season can work in your favor.

The buyers still looking aren’t just casually browsing, they’re motivated and usually eager to move before the new year.

And with other sellers pulling back, your house could jump straight to the top of a buyer’s wish list.

If you want a moment with real seller advantage, this season could be it.

Here’s a stat every potential seller should know: 57% more homes have been pulled off the market compared to this time last year.

But that’s not because something’s wrong with the market. It’s because something was off with seller expectations.

In 2025, too many sellers overpriced their homes or gave up too soon when they didn’t go under contract right away.

But that doesn’t mean homes won’t sell anymore. They just need a different approach.

Because the homes that are priced right today are selling, not sitting.

Want a strategy that actually gets results? DM me and we can walk through exactly what’s working for sellers in our area right now.
