Buyer Activity Picks Up as New Listings Fall Sharply

As the holidays approach, many Bend homeowners find themselves asking the same question: Should I list my home now or wait until after the New Year?
The truth is, there's no one-size-fits-all answer—but there are compelling reasons to consider making your move before the year ends.

Why Selling Before the Holidays Can Work in Your Favor

  1. Motivated Buyers Are Still Looking
    Not everyone slows down for the season. Many buyers in Bend are relocating for work, making year-end moves to take advantage of tax benefits, or finally finding time to focus on their home search during the holidays. These buyers are serious—and they're often ready to make strong offers.
  2. Less Competition Means More Attention

If you paused your plans to move because of high rates or prices, it may finally be time to take a second look at your numbers. Affordability is improving in 39 of the top 50 markets, according to First American. And that's the 5th straight month where buying a home has started to get a little bit easier.

Let's break this down into real dollars, so you can see the difference this could make for you (and your move).
