Over the four weeks ending August 23, new listings in the US edged up 0.4% week-over-week, and total homes for sale climbed 0.5%\u2014the highest level since early Q2. Yet, pending home sales dipped 1.1% to a six-month low, as many buyers remain cautious with median sale prices up 1.9% year-over-year to over $400K and mortgage rates hovering near 7%, a 13-month high. For those actively searching, this rise in inventory and cooling demand has created more opportunities to negotiate on price and concessions, especially for homes that have been listed for several weeks. Sellers, on the other hand, find the most success with realistic pricing, rather than aiming for the peaks of previous years. As a Luxury Real Estate Specialist in Johnson County and the Greater Kansas City area, I\u2019m always watching market shifts like these to help clients navigate with confidence.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We\u2019re seeing a shift in the US housing market, with more homes coming onto the market even as buyer demand tapers off.
