Compared to the same period last year, there was a significant 58.2% increase from 479 homes for sale.

Recap and Insights: The market's increase in homes for sale suggests a growing inventory, providing more options for buyers. The current figures are 758 homes for sale, up 11.5% from last month and 58.2% from last year. On the flip side, sales have decreased to 32 homes sold, down 42.9% from last month and 23.8% from last year, with a slight YTD decline of 1.5%.
Pending sales stand at 65, a 12.2% decrease from last month but unchanged from last year, with a YTD increase of 0.9%.
These dynamics create an advantageous scenario for buyers who can act now, as they have more choices and can negotiate better deals. Moreover, with the potential for prices to rise in the long term as demand catches up with supply, buying a home now can help you lock in current rates and avoid future price hikes. Investing in a home today could be a smart financial move before the market adjusts and prices increase. |

Now is a great time to buy if you can afford it. When mortgage rates fall, home prices tend to get bid up, leading to higher sales prices. Locking in a mortgage at the current rates can help you avoid the potential price increases that often accompany lower rates.
