Will my house still sell in today’s market?

September 19, 2022

Will My House Still Sell in Today’s Market?

If recent headlines about the housing market cooling and buyer demand moderating have you worried you’ve missed your chance to sell, here’s what you need to know. Buyer demand hasn’t disappeared, it’s just eased from the peak intensity we saw over the past two years.

Buyer Demand Then and Now

During the pandemic, mortgage rates hit record lows, and that spurred a significant rise in buyer demand. This year, as rates increased due to factors like rising inflation, buyer demand pulled back or softened as a result. The latest data from ShowingTime confirms this trend (see graph below):

Showings

The orange bars in the graph above represent the last few months of data and the clear cooldown in the volume of home showings the market has seen since mortgage rates started to rise. But context is important. To get the full picture of where today’s demand stands, let’s look at the July data for the past six years (see graph below):

This second visual makes it clear that, while moderating compared to the frenzy in 2020 and 2021, showing activity is still beating pre-pandemic levels – and those pre-pandemic years were great years for the housing market. That goes to show there’s still demand if you sell your house today.

What That Means for You When You Sell

The key to selling in a changing market is understanding where the housing market is now. It’s not the same market we had last year or even earlier this year, but that doesn’t mean the opportunity to sell has passed.

While things have cooled a bit, (for the time being) it’s still a sellers market. If you work with a trusted local expert to price your house at the current market value, the demand is still there, and it should sell quickly. According to a recent survey from Realtor.com, 92 percent of homeowners who sold in August reported being satisfied with the outcome of their sale.

Bottom Line

Buyer demand hasn’t disappeared, it’s just moderated this year. If you’re ready to sell your house today, let’s connect so you have expert insights on how the market has shifted and how to plan accordingly for your sale.

TESTIMONIALS

"As Real Estate Brokers in Hawaii for more than 40 years, we know how important a good agent is when looking to buy property when you can’t be there. After seeing a property listed by Russ, we called and talked with him. He came across as very knowledgeable, competent, helpful, and friendly so we asked Russ to send us new listings for the type of property we were looking for, which he did. When a property came up that we liked we contacted Russ and had him arrange to show the place to our son who lives in Green Valley. Everything looked great so we had Russ write and present our offer, which was accepted. Russ followed through with everything required and kept us up to date each step through escrow and the final closing. We are very happy with how Russ treated us and made sure everything got done when it needed to be done. Every step of this purchase was handled by phone and email. We recommend Russ to everyone looking for a good agent to represent them in Real Estate."

"Russ helped us make our retirement dream a reality. We met Russ in July of 2018 when we made our first house hunting trip to Green Valley, AZ. He listened carefully to what we were looking for in a home and presented us with a list of houses that met our criteria. He helped us through two failed sales on our ou-of-state home, and when our home sold after five months on the market Russ was ready to help us with our home purchase in AZ. He stayed on top of all the important dates, provided us with a wealth of information about the area and links to all the required utilities. Moving is very stressful but Russ took a lot of the stress away with his commitment to quality customer service."
- C. G., Green Valley AZ
"Russ is an incredible professional and I cannot think of a single area of expertise he wasn’t abreast of. Every question was answered promptly, accurately and pleasantly. He knows his market, he knows the industry and he knows people. He’s able to meet people on their level without being condescending. I would, and have, recommended Russ to others who are looking for a good and trustworthy Realtor."
- R.S., Green Valley, AZ
