There is definitely a shifting of the market, and with that comes a different mindset requirement for Sellers. While it may feel like you’re not making as much as you think you should, you are not losing. If you are selling and buying now, the numbers are still comparable, versus a market where your sale price is low but the purchase price is higher.
While as a Seller you may not see the same frantic activity as earlier in the year and your house may be on the market longer now, Buyers are still out there but taking a bit more time to do their area research (on likely one of the biggest purchases of their life). Now more than ever, knowing the true market value of your home is important.
