Good news for all the buyers out there.
The supply of homes for sale has grown significantly this year. There are 36.6% more homes actively for sale compared to 2023. This means more options for you.
But this doesn’t mean we have an oversupply. Inventory is still almost 29% lower compared to more normal years like 2017-2019.

3 Graphs That Show We’re Not Headed for a Housing Market Crash
Back in 2008, there were too many homes on the market. Today, it’s just the opposite. The three main sources of inventory show this isn’t like the last time.
Right now, over 2/3 of homeowners have at least 50% equity in their homes.
And that much equity can go a long way toward buying a new place.
Curious about how much equity you have? I can walk you through a Professional Equity Assessment Report on your house. Drop a comment below if you’re interested.
Caught between caring for your kids and aging parents? Here’s some good news.
In a recent survey, 1 in 3 people in this same situation find it actually makes it easier to afford a home.
That’s because a multi-generational home has big financial perks like sharing expenses and built-in childcare.
If you want to talk about whether this type of home is right for you, DM me.
Unlocking the Benefits of Your Home Equity
Home equity is the difference between how much your home is worth and how much you owe on your mortgage. And for most people it’s gotten a big boost in recent years, thanks to rising home prices. If you want to find out how much equity you have, reach out for a professional equity assessment report.

During the pandemic, home prices soared due to high demand coupled with low inventory and mortgage rates. But that rapid appreciation couldn’t last forever.
Now, data confirms prices are still rising, just more moderately.
This healthier pace is actually a good thing. It means home price growth is normalizing.
DM me if you want more details on prices in our area.
Do high prices at the gas pump and grocery store have you worried more people are going to fall behind on their mortgage payments?
If you’re thinking that’ll lead to a surge of foreclosures, let this reassure you.
Serious delinquencies (loans that are 3 or more monthly payments past due) are on the decline – so there’s no wave of foreclosures on the horizon.
