Weekly Activity Breakdown
Listings:
Inventory remains high, with 4,150 new listings added this week and an additional 679 homes coming back on the market. Sellers are still entering the market in large numbers, but many are quickly adjusting their expectations. That’s evident in the 6,392 price reductions, a substantial spike that shows sellers are increasingly motivated to attract buyers during a competitive season.
Contracts & Closings:
Contract activity remains healthy, with 1,738 homes going under Active Option Contract and 2,670 pending, leading into a strong finish for the month. Meanwhile, 2,827 homes closed, slightly outpacing new pendings and showing that deals in the pipeline are still reaching the finish line despite buyer hesitations around rates and price.
Withdrawals & Cancellations:
With 1,068 canceled listings, we’re seeing some seller fatigue, likely from listings sitting longer or not meeting price expectations. Still, withdrawn listings (64) remain minimal, suggesting most sellers are staying active on the market rather than giving up.
Trend Insights
1. Price Drops Signal Market Shift
With over 6,300 price reductions, sellers are recognizing that buyers are becoming more price-sensitive. This is one of the highest weekly counts we’ve seen in 2025 and likely reflects homes that were initially overpriced or lingering on the market. The window to make a strong impression is narrowing, especially with more inventory available.
2. Listings Outpacing Contracts
New listings continue to outpace homes going under contract—over 4,800 homes entered or re-entered the market, while only 4,400 moved to pending/option status. This is causing inventory to build slightly, giving buyers more choices and negotiating power.
3. Strong Closing Volume
The nearly 2,830 closings this week show that buyers are still active and motivated—especially when homes are well-priced and move-in ready. Summer remains a prime season to transact, but speed and pricing matter more than ever.
What It Means for Buyers and Sellers
For Buyers:
The rise in price drops is your cue to act—but wisely. With more inventory and motivated sellers, this is a great time to negotiate favorable terms. Be strategic:
-
Focus on homes with recent price reductions.
-
Leverage the competition among sellers to negotiate closing costs or rate buydowns.
-
Watch for stale listings that may offer hidden value.
Also, with closing activity strong, don't wait too long—desirable homes are still moving quickly when priced right.

For Sellers:
This week’s data is a clear signal: price positioning is critical. If your home isn't getting attention, it's time to re-evaluate:
-
Consider a price adjustment sooner rather than later—buyers are watching.
-
Ensure your home shows at its best with professional photos, staging, and curb appeal.
-
Pay attention to your first two weeks on market—that’s your prime window to capture interest.
While demand is still healthy, buyers are cautious and selective. Homes that are turn-key and well-priced are still getting showings and offers quickly. Overpriced or underprepared homes are being left behind.
