The Holiday Slowdown Brims With Buying Opportunity!

The Holiday Slowdown Brims With Buying Opportunity!

🎄 The holidays are here, and while our metro market is easing into its seasonal slowdown, “slow” doesn’t mean “broken.” 🏠 Our 2025 market is recalibrating after several frenzied years, shaped by inflation, economic uncertainty, and real estate fundamentals. ✨ December also happens to be one of the most affordable times of the year to buy 📉 — ATTOM’s seven-year analysis of 23M+ sales shows homes closing this month sell at the lowest premium above market value. With inventory hitting decade-highs and November’s trends following normal seasonal rhythms, 2025 has brought us back to balance: 🤝 normal negotiations, ⏱️ reasonable timelines, and steadier prices.

🎁 Buyers can benefit now, with motivated sellers, available buydowns 💸, and prices expected to rise again in the spring 🌷. Sellers who price and prepare well can still secure strong offers 💼, though patience is essential in a quieter market. Looking ahead, 2026 is shaping up with optimism — potential rate cuts 📉, a stabilizing economy 📊, and life changes that continue to move people 👶💍. If you’re considering a 2026 move, let's connect now. Early planning gives you a meaningful advantage: ✨ 303.912.5394 or [email protected].
