Think No One’s Buying Homes Right Now? Think Again.
If you’ve seen headlines saying home sales are down compared to last year, you might be thinking – is it even a good time to sell?
Here’s the thing: sure, the pace of the market has cooled compared to the frenzy we saw just a few years ago, but that’s not a red flag. It’s a return to normal. And normal doesn’t mean nothing’s happening. Buyers are still out there – and homes are still selling.
Why Are Homes Still Selling?
Because real life doesn’t pause for perfect conditions. There are always people who need to buy – and this year is no exception. Buyers experiencing major life changes like marriage, a growing family, or a new job still need to move, regardless of where mortgage rates are. And they may be looking for a home just like yours.
Every Minute, 8 Homes Sell
Let’s break it down using the latest sales data from the National Association of Realtors (NAR). Based on the current pace, we’re on track to sell 4.03 million homes this year (not including new construction).
📊
-
4.03 million homes ÷ 365 days = 11,041 homes sell per day
-
11,041 homes ÷ 24 hours = 460 homes sell per hour
-
460 homes ÷ 60 minutes = roughly 8 homes sell every minute
That means in the time it takes to read this, another 8 homes will sell. Let that sink in.
The Right Agent Makes All the Difference
If you’ve been holding off on selling your house because you think buyers aren’t out there, let this reassure you – they are.
But since the market is balancing out, selling today takes more than just putting a sign in the yard. You need to price your house correctly, market it strategically, and connect with serious buyers. That’s where a trusted local expert comes in.
An experienced agent can guide you through every step of the process and ensure your home stands out.
Bottom Line
The market hasn’t stopped. Buyers are still buying. Life is still happening. And if selling your home is part of your next chapter, let’s make it happen.
Roughly 11,000 homes are selling every day – and yours could be next.
