What Does This Mean for You?

If You’re Selling

Well-positioned detached homes are still moving quickly. Strong results, however, depend on pricing, presentation, and location. Sellers above $1.5M should pay particular attention to competing inventory and longer marketing times.

If You’re Buying

Be prepared to act on standout properties, especially between $1M and $1.5M. More inventory above $1.5M and longer-listed homes may offer room to negotiate. Attached properties vary significantly by building and price.
