Right now, we’re seeing both buyers and sellers feeling stuck—and it’s no wonder. Higher mortgage rates are making monthly payments tougher to manage, so many buyers are choosing to hold off instead of stretching their budgets. Pending sales are slowing, which means fewer people are moving from browsing to actually making offers. On the other side, homeowners with lower existing mortgages aren’t eager to give up that advantage, so a lot of potential listings are staying off the market. It’s a true stalemate: buyers are searching for better payment options, sellers don’t want to lose their great rates, and as a result, transactions have slowed to a crawl. My approach is to help clients navigate these challenging conditions with clear communication, honest guidance, and an understanding of what’s happening locally—so you can make decisions with confidence, no matter where you stand in the process.
