Market Signals & Indicators

Negotiating Leverage

In the current environment, the significant increase in active listings and the protracted median days on market at 64 days indicate less urgency for demand. The low pending ratio suggests that prospective buyers have more time to assess options, reducing pressure for rapid transactions. This shift implies a need for greater price discipline from sellers to align with prevailing demand absorption rates, particularly given the growing pool of available properties.
