Over the four weeks ending August 23, new home listings ticked up 0.4% and total homes for sale rose 0.5%, reaching their highest point since early Q2. Meanwhile, pending home sales dropped by 1.1% to a six-month low. Even as inventory improves, high housing costs are keeping many buyers on the sidelines. The median home-sale price is now up 1.9% year-over-year, climbing above $400K, and average mortgage rates are hovering near 7%, almost a 13-month high.<\/p>\n<p>What does this mean for those of you navigating your next move? More inventory and softer demand are creating buyer-friendly conditions, offering more space for negotiation\u2014think price cuts or concessions, especially on homes that have lingered on the market. Sellers are finding that realistic pricing is far more effective than chasing last year\u2019s numbers.<\/p>\n<p>My background as a data scientist means I don\u2019t just watch trends\u2014I break them down to help you make sense of the shifts. If you\u2019re thinking about your next step, I\u2019m here to help you weigh your options with clarity and empathy.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lately, we\u2019re seeing a subtle but important shift in the Orange County market\u2014and it mirrors national trends.
