What this means for buyers
You have more choice than a year ago and room to negotiate, especially on homes that have been listed a few weeks. The best-priced homes still sell fast.
What this means for sellers
Buyers are choosier. Pricing to the current market (not last spring’s), strong photos and good prep matter more than they did a year ago.
