More Homes, Better Deals—This Season Could Be Your Time to Buy
If you’ve been waiting for the perfect time to buy, this spring could be your moment. With rising inventory and sellers more open to negotiation, buyers have more options and greater leverage than in previous years. Let’s explore why this shift in the market benefits you.
1. More Homes, More Choices
The number of homes for sale this February was the highest it’s been in five years. According to Realtor.com, inventory has increased 27.5% compared to last year.
This means:
✅ More properties to choose from—giving you a better chance to find the perfect home.
✅ Less competition—fewer bidding wars, so you can make confident, strategic offers.
✅ More time to decide—buyers can now explore options without the intense pressure of previous markets.
Danielle Hale, Chief Economist at Realtor.com, explains:
"Buyers will not only have more home options . . . but they are also likely to find somewhat lower asking prices and more time to make decisions— all buyer-friendly factors as we inch closer to the busy homebuying season."
2. Sellers Are Pricing to Move
With more homes on the market, some sellers are adjusting their prices to attract buyers. The number of listings with price reductions has increased, returning closer to pre-pandemic levels (2017–2019).
What does this mean for you?
✔️ Better price negotiations—Sellers may be willing to lower prices or offer closing cost assistance.
✔️ More flexibility—You may be able to negotiate repairs or upgrades as part of the deal.
✔️ Higher value for buyers—With strategic offers, you can secure a home at a competitive price.
The Bottom Line
If you've been waiting for the right time to buy, this spring could be the opening you’ve been hoping for. Luxury homes, increased options, and better pricing strategies make now a strategic moment to enter the market.
