Hello everyone, and welcome to another weekly market rant! Despite the larger than normal inventory gains this week, the current buyer buzz is keeping things afloat by solid contributions in the areas that count, namely, writing offers. A staggering 176 properties have accepted an offer on their property this week, which should keep our confirmed sales chugging along quite nicely in a few weeks. Values are up across the board, but days on market do not seem to be flinging much, in fact, they are still reflecting a saggy market with a showing of just over 3 months for the average property to sell. The same hard tactics apply in the current market, but new listings can probably feel the difference this year if they had attempt the market in the last few years. All signs are pointing in a good direction, and there is a lot of positive speculation (as always), but as we know, numbers don't lie. Stay tuned for the direction that we will go this year, although, many people are still reluctant and hesitant to get onboard, but lets not forget, it took a while for the fact that we where/are in a turbulent market to hit home as well. ![]() WEEKLY ADOGTABLE Hello, my name is Truffle!
