If you’ve been wondering what’s actually happening in our local real estate market — and whether this is a good time to sell — you’re not alone. Many homeowners are quietly watching and waiting.
Here’s the current reality on the North Shore:
Buyers are active, but thoughtful.
The urgency we saw in past years has eased. Today’s buyers are taking their time, comparing options carefully, and making measured decisions.
Inventory is higher than it has been.
More homes on the market means more choice for buyers — and more competition between sellers. Preparation and presentation matter more than ever.
Pricing correctly from the start is key.
Homes that align with current market conditions are attracting interest and selling. Properties priced above today’s expectations are often being overlooked as buyers move on to better-positioned options.
Well-prepared homes are standing out.
Condition, layout, natural light, and overall presentation are making a noticeable difference in how quickly a property sells and the kind of offers it receives.
There is opportunity — even in a calmer market.
While the pace is more measured, serious buyers are still out there, especially for homes that are thoughtfully priced and move-in ready.
OUR PERSPECTIVE
You don’t need to make any decisions immediately. But if selling is something you’re considering in 2026 — even if it’s months away — this is a smart time to understand where your home fits in today’s landscape.
As always, we’re here to provide insight whenever you need it, with no pressure and no expectations.
