The market just flipped, and if you don’t pivot right now, you’re gonna lose money. Housing prices are still high. Interest rates? All over the place. Sellers are nervous and Buyers are cautious. But here’s what no one’s telling you: the market has officially shifted, and it changes everything.
Hi, I’m Terry Tucker, Realtor with eXp Realty, and I help people sell and buy homes right here in the East Bay!
Today, the national average home price is $407,000, which is only up 2.9% from last year. And homes are sitting longer. Average days on market is up to 32 days, with some areas hitting 45+. That’s a shift. Inventory is up 12% nationwide, and new listings are down. That tight price gap between asking and sold is disappearing fast. That means buyers have more negotiating power than we’ve seen in years. Think closing costs, concessions, and price wiggle room.
Buyers, now is your time! The opportunity is here, and the smart ones are moving. Sellers, this is not the time to test the market. If your pricing and marketing aren’t flawless from DAY ONE, your leverage is gone. The longer your home sits, the more power shifts to the buyer. So, whether you’re thinking of buying, selling, or just want to play it smart, don’t guess. My team and I will sit down with you, break down the latest comps, and map out a strategic plan tailored to this exact market. With over 28 years of experience, I know how to help you win in any market. I’m Terry Tucker with eXp Realty. Call or DM me today and let’s get you started!
