Not so hot right now! #RealEstate #HomeBuying #RealEstateTips00Share
russellolson+FollowWhy Are Homes Sitting Unsold Longer?Noticing more 'For Sale' signs hanging around? Even in those once-buzzy cities like Miami and Orlando, homes are taking longer to sell.

If you’re house hunting, you might finally have some leverage to negotiate or spot a price drop. Sellers, on the other hand, need to get real about pricing if they want to move on.

Samantha Welch+FollowIs the Housing Market Taking a Breather?Noticed more 'For Sale' signs sticking around lately?

Sellers aren’t rushing to drop prices, and many are just pulling their homes off the market if they don’t get what they want. Even with mortgage rates dipping, buyers have more options but still face slim pickings compared to pre-pandemic days. If you’re house hunting, patience might pay off as the summer market chills out. #RealEstate #HousingMarket #RealEstateTips20Share

randerson+FollowWhy I Don’t Sweat High Interest RatesEver feel like everyone’s freaking out about mortgage rates? Real estate pro Jeremy Barker says: chill. Instead of obsessing over interest rates, he focuses on knowing his local market inside and out—like what rents go for and what buildings really cost. His hack? If your rent covers your bills (and then some), you’re golden, no matter what the bank’s charging. Plus, when rates are high, there’s less competition and better deals. So, next time rates spike, think opportunity, not panic! #RealEstateTips #MoneyHacks #Investing101 #RealEstate00Share
