Wrap Up:
The mercury on the thermometer might be falling, but the real estate market is not following suit quite as quickly. November brought along decent numbers for both sales and new listings for this time of year, although the absorption numbers do dictate that we are back in a buyer's market after a blip in October.
The number of new properties on the market is great news for buyers, but if your home has been listed for a while now may be the time to have a discussion with your agent about the best way to get buyers to zero in and stand out among the competition. Whether that means a price adjustment or advertising strategy, now is the time to talk game plan with a pro listing agent today.
