Inventory

Whether it’s at a family gathering, your company party, or catching up with friends over the holidays, the housing market always finds its way into the conversation.

When the holidays roll around, travel plans, family gatherings, and all the chaos of the season may make you think it’s better to pull your listing off the market or to wait until 2026 to sell your house. But here’s the thing.

After several years of high mortgage rates and hesitation from buyers, momentum is quietly building beneath the surface of the housing market.

If it feels like you’re seeing new construction signs pop up everywhere, you’re not wrong.

If you stepped back from your home search over the past few years, you’re not alone – and you’re definitely not out of options. In fact, now might be the ideal time to take another look. 

A few years ago, inventory hit a record low. Just about anything sold – and fast. But now, there are far more homes on the market.

There’s a new divide in housing right now. In some states, buyers are gaining ground. In others, sellers still have the upper hand. It all depends on where you live.

Not every homebuyer wants the biggest house on the block.

Cutting out the agent might seem like a smart way to save when you sell your house. But here’s the hard truth.

Depending on where you live, the housing market could feel red-hot or strangely quiet right now.
