July brought a 7% uptick in home sales, with values increasing 1.1% year-over-year to $371,757. Inventory also saw a slight boost, now at 1.41 million homes—a welcome shift for buyers who have been navigating limited choices. Mortgage payments dipped by 0.9%, though there’s potential for them to climb again. Notably, the median days to pending rose to 25, and 27.1% of listings experienced price cuts, highlighting the nuanced dynamics at play right now.
As someone who has guided buyers, sellers, and investors through many market cycles, I know how important it is to interpret these changes in light of your unique goals. Real estate is rarely one-size-fits-all, and understanding what these numbers mean for you is key to making confident decisions. Whether you’re considering your next move or simply keeping a close eye on the market, staying informed is a powerful first step. Experience you can trust. Service you’ll remember.
