Current Market Report
APRIL HOUSING MARKET SNAPSHOT
Key Notes:
- Sales actually went down slightly in all areas except Franklin County. If we look at the areas where it went down, note the larger increase it new listings in those areas. If new listings were able to increase that much based on the previous month, that shows there may not have been a whole lot of new activity which means less inventory to choose from to turn into sales.
- Active listings stayed somewhat the same month to month everywhere except Woodford, where they saw a slight increase. This shows sales and new inventory in correlation - leaving about the same number of homes available.
- Days homes are sitting on the market actually declined in almost all areas. This is great as it shows things are moving off the shelves of inventory. This is great also since there is new inventory continuing to come on the market to replace what's being sold.
- Pricing hasn't gone up or down anything crazy compared to last month.
--- Don't wait to reach out regarding your own home. Let's get to prepping! I am a great advice giver in terms of what to or not to do based on sales in the area, pricing and your goals. ---
Buyers; it is sounding like any significant interest rate reduction may not occur until the last quarter of this year - so if you need to buy now, don't wait and miss out on homes in hopes of a major change in a month or so. #RefinanceLater
Don't forget I am here for you. Even if you're not ready yet to make your move but need help deciding how to prep your home for the market, or need to figure out what you need to buy a home. Don't go about it alone. Questions? Contact me here!
Testimonials

Cassidy was amazing to work with in the process of selling our home of 35 years. She was so professional, organized, and she helped us work through all the details to sell our home smoothly. Her marketing and network connections were fantastic. Her professionalism, expertise and excellent interpersonal skills work synergistically to make her a wonderful representative for anyone attempting to purchase or sell a home. Furthermore, and most importantly, Cassidy has treated us with that special touch of making us feel as if we were her only clients, while we knew that she was busy working with other clients as well. That is truly commendable! She knows the market and made great recommendations for us. Cassidy is so nice to work with and I would highly recommend her!

I asked Cassidy to be my Realtor back in February of this year. She immediately hit the ground running. Always returning my calls or texts and setting up every showing I requested..at the times I requested. She always made herself available regardless of what she was doing. What Cassidy does for her clients is not written in a handbook or taught to her by others. What she does comes from her passion and commitment to do a great job for her clients. I totally recommend Cassidy to anyone who needs a realtor who really cares about doing a good job as well as finding the best home for you and your family. I will continue to use Cassidy in the future for all my future home purchases.
Thanks again Cassidy for all your hard work and for finding me my perfect home.

I recently decided to look into buying my own home and was very intimidated by the process. I contacted Cassidy and she was amazing. She made the process much easier than I expected and answered all my questions, and there were many! I can’t say enough good things about Cassidy and the assistance she provided to me. I will definitely recommend Cassidy to anyone who is looking for a realtor. Thank you, Cassidy, for making the process go as smoothly as possible.

Cassidy is simply as great as they come! One thing I love about Cassidy is that she will always give an honest opinion. She made the buying process so easy for us even when we weren’t easy clients. Anytime we asked to see a house she was always willing to go out of her way to show us. I would recommend Cassidy to anyone that is buying a house!

Cassidy was the first person I thought of when I needed to list my property. She was very thorough in putting together all of the documents, photography, and other assorted details which took a lot of the stress off of me having to worry about it. The property sold for a record price in a very short period of time. Thank you for an awesome experience!

Had such a great experience as a first time buyer! Cassidy was so helpful and made the overwhelming process enjoyable.

Cassidy has helped my wife and myself with several purchases and sales in the past year and we are very thankful to have such a great realtor. She made it very easy and helped us get more out of our house than we thought possible. She was always quick to respond and help us in any way, even while on vacation she helped us on a time sensitive purchase. We will never use another realtor as long as she's in business! Thank you!

Cassidy is a fantastic realtor but an even more extraordinary person. I have had the pleasure of working with her on both the purchase of a new home and the selling of my old home, she has guided me through both with ease. She is intelligent, kind, crafty and a pure joy to work with. If you are looking to do either, buy or sell your home, she is the one you want by your side!
