Falling for Real Estate

The current real estate market in Massachusetts remains competitive, despite the typical fall slowdown. Limited inventory continues to drive demand, keeping prices steady. While higher interest rates have impacted affordability, buyers remain active, and sellers who price their homes strategically are seeing strong interest.

A key development in real estate is the recent ruling affecting commission structures. Buyers may soon be responsible for directly paying their agent's commission, which has traditionally been covered by the seller. This change could reshape how both buyers and sellers approach transactions, adding a new layer of complexity to the process. However, I have ways to navigate this new fee structure, ensuring a win-win for everyone involved.

With interest rates expected to drop in the near future, we could see an influx of activity in the spring market. Preparing now—whether you're buying or selling—puts you in a stronger position to navigate these shifts before competition heats up!
