Here’s the deal 👇 Homes that are selling quickly today are the ones priced right for THIS market 🏡✨ They’re well-maintained 🛠️, staged to stand out 🛋️🌿, and make it super easy for buyers to say YES! 🙋♀️🙋♂️💛 The homes that aren’t selling? They skipped the prep… or priced way too high 😬💸 And those homes just sit… and sit… and sit ⏳📉 Right now, there are 20% more homes for sale than this time last year 📊🏠 But here’s the twist — most of that isn’t new listings… It’s homes that have been sitting for weeks or months and still haven’t sold 😕 That’s what the blue bar shows: 📉 A growing number of active listings that are just sitting on the market.
