No Place Like Home

12/09/2025

If you’ve been dreaming about a brand-new home, this may be your best window to buy in years.

41% of builders cut prices in November. That’s an all-time high.

And here’s why. There are more newly built homes for sale than there’d normally be. So, builders are more motivated to sell what they already have available before they build more.

To keep their inventory moving, they’re offering incentives most buyers would never expect, including price drops and:

Help with closing costs.

Free upgrades.

Even mortgage rate buydowns.

In a time when every dollar counts, these savings matter.

This May Be the Best Time To Buy a Brand-New Home

With most builders offering generous incentives and a wider selection of new homes for sale, buyers may be looking at one of the best times in years to buy a new build.

Let's connect if you want to know which communities, builders, and incentives offer the most value today. Having your own agent (not the builder’s representative) makes the sale and negotiation process that much easier for you.

If you could have a brand-new home for less than you may expect, would you be interested?

New home construction today is giving buyers something it feels like they haven't gotten much lately: a real shot at both the home they want and the deal they need.

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.

If you’re like a lot of homeowners, you’ve probably thought: “I’d like to move… but I don’t want to give up my 3% rate.”

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.
