We get it—rates are up, the headlines are dramatic, and summer’s here…and you’d rather be out playing.
But here’s what we’re seeing on the ground: inventory is up. While some listings still spark bidding wars, plenty of others don’t. That means serious buyers can land great homes with less competition—and with more negotiating power.
Sellers are more open to making deals after inspections, whether that’s closing cost credits, repairs, or even price reductions. We’re seeing buyer wins that just weren’t on the table a couple of years ago.
And here’s the other BIG thing: home values usually go up over time. The house you’re eyeing today? It’s probably going to cost more in a few years—and that’s time you could’ve spent building equity, customizing your space, and settling into your next chapter.
Buying now isn’t about timing things perfectly (no one can). It’s about getting in, starting your investment, and letting time work in your favor.
The market won’t wait, but we will. When you’re ready to get clear, get smart, and get moving, the Dream Digs Team is here—no pressure, just real support.
