Things have stayed relatively steady over the last month. Most homes find a buyer in less than a month (3 weeks on average), and in general are selling very close to list price.

The big takeaway here is that if you plan to sell your home, pricing it correctly is SO important if you don't want it to sit on the market for a long time. There are always going to be people looking to buy the right home at the right price, so being strategic about your pricing is of the utmost importance.

I met with a client this week to discuss the possibility of him selling his home. I put together a comparative market analysis report where he could see recently sold, pending, and active listings that compare to his home. Based on that data, we discussed an appropriate list price should he decide to sell. If you're curious what your home's current market value might be, I'm happy to do the same for you (FYI - Zillow and Redfin are notoriously inaccurate). Zero pressure to actually sell--this is all part of the decision making process and I want you to do what's right for you!

Here's the latest from our area's real estate market! Lots of numbers to digest here, but the big picture is: things cooled down a bit in July. Home prices dropped slightly in some areas, but no drastic changes. On average, homes are still selling fairly quickly (within 1-2 weeks) but not at the wildly speedy rate of a couple years ago. That means there are still buyers out there, and demand for homes, but the power is more balanced and buyers aren't competing with 20+ offers going significantly over list price.

There's a lot contributing to these trends, but a huge factor continues to be interest rates. If you're locked into a low rate on your current home, it's hard to think about buying a new house at a higher rate. While that's totally valid, there are also things we can negotiate to try to compensate for that added expense until the rates drop and you're able to refinance. It also helps to work with a lender who is creative, accessible, and dedicated to helping you find the best rate available to you.

All that to say, if you've been thinking about making a move but hesitating due to the rates, let's talk about it. Staying put might be the right choice for you, but there may also be some options out there that you haven't considered. I'm here to help. 😊

Is it possible we're already halfway through July?? The real estate market is doing some interesting things this summer (to put it mildly 😜). There have been significantly fewer listings than a typical June, which contributes to high competition and rising home prices. We're back down to 5-6 days on market for the average listing, which means if you're thinking of selling a home, now is a great time to do it!

I know it can be discouraging to see home prices rising, if you're looking to purchase a home. And that's valid--we all have financial limits that we need to be conscious of. But it helps to keep in mind that, even if the market fluctuates, real estate consistently appreciates over time. So while this might be a tricky time to flip houses or make a profit on a short-term investment, if you are looking to hold onto your house for years, your home will gain value over time.

I've got availability this summer so if you have any questions about buying, selling, or investing in real estate, reach out to me!

Who doesn't love a classic Tacoma craftsman home? I'm a big fan of old homes--the more original charm (and quirky details) the better! And in Tacoma, craftsman is the quintessential style. Check out these listings and let me know which one you would choose!

Let's take a peek at what's going on in the local real estate market! 🏠

In the month of May, there were significantly fewer homes on the market than there were at this time last year (less than 70% as much inventory, year-over-year!). There are still plenty of buyers looking for homes, though, which is causing competition to heat up. At the moment, most homes are selling within a week, and very close to list price.

Summer is typically the hottest season in terms of real estate (pun intended 😏☀️), and this year is shaping up the same way. If you are thinking of selling your home, the summer months are a great time to do it, to increase your chances of getting it sold quickly and for the price you're looking for.

And if you're looking to buy a home, it means going in knowing you will likely be competing with at least a handful of other offers, and talking to your agent about the best strategies for winning bids. There are ways to stand out above the rest, and you just need to be on the same page with your agent, and know what your non-negotiables are.

Reach out if you want to chat about it! I've got openings in my schedule and would love to help if you've been thinking about buying or selling.

Congratulations to my clients who are officially under contract to buy perhaps the most charming lake house I have EVER seen. This one is special for several reasons:
1. I helped Colin and Andrea purchase lakefront property a few years ago, and they were kind enough to refer me to their parents for this purchase. I LOVE referrals, and it feels amazing to know that my past clients had such a good experience with me that they would trust me to help their loved ones. All the warm fuzzies. 🥰
2. This property is an absolute dream. Lakefront with 180° views from the large porch and bedrooms, a floating dock and PONTOON BOAT, and a large shop (which Steve plans to convert to an art studio). The house is a 1942 log cabin and gives all of the cozy woodsy vibes you could ask for.
3. They are purchasing it as a family (parents and adult kids) and I know it will be the setting of many future memories for them and their community.

So excited for these awesome people!!

These numbers tell a story, and for the month of April, that story was all about balance. Homes are staying on the market a few weeks on average, and finding buyers at very close to asking price. That means that, in general, there isn't so much competition that buyers have to bid excessively high, waive inspections, etc., but there are enough buyers out there that sellers don't have to take drastically low offers either.

The ideal real estate transaction is a win for everyone involved. When the market isn't acting like a crazy game of musical chairs, negotiating can truly be a conversation so everyone is happy with the outcome. We can work together to find the right combination of purchase price, inspection terms, closing/possession date, and closing costs so everyone comes away with what they need.

Buying or selling a home is a big deal, and there's always going to be some level of stress involved. But compared to other seasons, this is a fairly calm time to do it, and I'm here for it!

Questions? I'm always here!
