Over the past four weeks, new listings in the US have inched up by 0.4%, and total homes for sale rose 0.5%, reaching their highest point since early spring. At The Brooks Group, we see this growing inventory as a real opportunity for thoughtful buyers. While pending home sales have dipped 1.1% to a six-month low\u2014largely due to elevated housing costs and mortgage rates hovering near 7%\u2014those actively searching now have more negotiating power. Nationally, the median home price is up 1.9% year-over-year, just topping $400K. For clients who value strategy, homes that have lingered on the market for several weeks are often where the best deals can be found. Sellers who price realistically, rather than chasing last year\u2019s peaks, are seeing stronger results. Our approach centers on guiding you through these changes with care, expertise, and a focus on your long-term goals\u2014because for us, real estate is never just a transaction. It\u2019s about building your legacy.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we move through late August, the market is showing some interesting shifts.
