Summary:

The March 2024 real estate market offered few surprises. As expected, it showed the usual signs of increasing Spring sales and inventory, and price movements well within the trend. But also as expected, these signs were not indicative of any significant emerging strengths or weaknesses. The underlying factors of economic uncertainty continue to moderate both strong enthusiasm and extreme alarm, like much of the rest of the economy. Real estate is being bought and sold where necessary or desirable, in the usual manner, at the moment, and we expect that to continue without dramatic change until larger questions about the economy move toward a clearer resolution.

Meanwhile, the real estate industry is itself about to undergo some major structural changes as a result of some major lawsuit settlements. There are still a lot of unanswered questions concerning what's going to happen, but as things become more defined, we'll be keeping you informed about those as well.

If you have questions about what's happening in the real estate market - or the real estate industry - please give us a call. We'd love to talk to you about what's going on.
