You’ve probably heard plenty of doom and gloom about the housing market lately.

You’ve probably heard that home prices are cooling off.

When your house doesn’t sell, it’s not just disappointing. It messes with your timing. Your plans. Your confidence.

You may be hearing that a near-record number of homeowners are pulling their houses off the market.

Open up a home search and you’ll see them. Listings that have been on the market for two months. Three. Some longer.

Remember a few years back when sellers held all the power and buyers were stuck offering way over asking or waiving inspections just to get a chance at the house? In many markets, those days are behind us.
