How Growing Inventory Benefits Today's Buyers
Some Highlights
- While the number of homes for sale varies by local area, nationally we’re up over 36% year-over-year, but still down almost 29% compared to what’s normal.
- Here’s what that means when you buy: more options for your search, more negotiation power for you, it’s more likely sellers will make select repairs, and more moderate price growth.
- If you want to talk more about what rising inventory means for you, connect with a local real estate agent.
