Why is everyone buying & selling right now? And should you?

If you've been thinking about buying or selling a home, you're not alone. The real estate market in Northeast Florida is buzzing with activity, and if you're wondering why, here's what you need to know - plus how to make the most of this moment before it passes.
More homes are hitting the market
Inventory is rising, which means more choices for buyers - but also more competition for sellers. The right homes, priced correctly, are still moving fast.
Mortgage rates have shifted
Interest rates have dipped slightly, creating an opportunity for buyers to lock in a better deal before any future changes.
Home prices are stabilizing
Prices are holding steady in many areas, making it a great time to buy before any potential upticks later in the year. Sellers who price their homes competitively are seeing strong demand.
So what does this mean for you? That depends on your goals.
Sellers: Why you should consider listing now
With buyer demand high and inventory balancing out, well-prepared homes can sell quickly - and often with strong offers. But waiting too long could mean facing more competition later in the season. The key? Pricing your home strategically and presenting it in its best light. (Need help with that? I've got you covered.)
Buyers: Why acting sooner could save you money
If you've been waiting for the right moment, this could be it. With more homes available and slightly lower rates, your dream home might be within reach. But keep in mind - good homes go fast. Having a strategy (and a great agent) will help you make a winning move.
