However, 39.1% of listings have undergone price reductions, an increase of 3.1% compared to the prior year. The pending ratio stands at 0.37, a year-over-year decrease of 0.8%.
The current data suggests a market environment where inventory levels are rising, and a notable share of listings are adjusting prices. While properties are moving off market at a faster pace as indicated by reduced days on market, the lower pending ratio and increased price reductions imply a shift in negotiating leverage. This environment demands greater price discipline from sellers and offers more opportunity for buyers to negotiate on terms and price.
