The numbers
My read
Inventory is the story: meaningfully more choice on the market than during the frenzy years, while closed sales eased. That is breathing room buyers have not had in years — more choice, fewer panic offers, and negotiating positions that actually hold. Prices have not dropped; the county median has held steady. What changed is velocity.
Listings that are priced right and presented well still move fast, while overpriced homes sit and then chase the market down.Genaro Shaffer · Broker
For sellers: presentation and the first ten days matter more than they did during the frenzy. For buyers: the inventory bump is real, but the good houses still go quickly — be ready, not rushed.
