Even a slight uptick in completed transactions compared to last summer signals steady buyer activity, despite ongoing market shifts. Median existing-home prices have now climbed for 37 straight months, reaching $434,100 and giving many homeowners in our communities extra equity to keep an eye on. Inventory remains tight, with 1.54 million homes on the market\u2014a 1.9% monthly and 0.6% yearly decline\u2014so close attention to new listings remains essential for buyers.
