Act strategically, not frantically.

Sellers are losing leverage as inventory swells and days on market shrink. You now have time to inspect closely, compare options, and make offers below asking. Prices are trending down—use that momentum to negotiate.

Honest Caveats

Market action remains relatively brisk at 66.73, suggesting some competitive bidding persists. Don't assume every home will sit or accept lowball offers.
