Correction, Not A Crash

- Sellers are starting to lower listing prices which signals improving value for buyers and investors.
Inventory Is Finally Growing
- Inventory has risen for 24 consecutive months and active listings are up 15% year-over-year.
- More inventory gives investors greater optionality even though national supply is still below pre-pandemic levels.

- Use that comparison to judge whether price declines are likely and adjust your strategy accordingly.
