Confused About What’s Going on in the Housing Market? Lean on a Professional

When you’re thinking about buying or selling a home, you want to know what’s really going on with home prices, mortgage rates, housing availability, and more. It’s no easy feat considering today’s headlines are sensational. Real estate advisor Jay Thompson explains:

“Housing market headlines are everywhere. Many are quite sensational, ending with exclamation points or predicting impending doom for the industry. Clickbait, the sensationalizing of headlines and content, has been an issue since the dawn of the internet, and housing news is not immune to it.”

Unfortunately, ambiguity in the media can create a lot of fear and uncertainty in markets, said Jason Lewris, co-founder and chief data officer at Parcl:

“In the absence of trustworthy, up-to-date information, real estate decisions are increasingly being driven by fear, uncertainty, and doubt.”

But it doesn’t have to be. Buying or selling a home is a big decision and one that you should feel confident about. Rely on a local real estate consultant to separate fact from fiction and get the answers you need.

A trusted expert is the best resource for understanding what is happening in a country or region. Uncover headlines with data you can trust. It also provides context so that our in-depth knowledge of the industry allows us to know how current trends change relative to normal industry ups and downs, historical data, and more.

Then, to get the big picture, it will tell you if your region is following national trends, or if you’re seeing something different in your market. Use it to make the best possible decisions.

After all, moving is a potentially life-changing milestone. It should be something that you feel ready and excited about. That’s where agents come in.
