September’s housing market offered some telling signals for anyone navigating their next move. After eight months of steady momentum, pending home sales edged slightly negative compared to last year, with higher borrowing costs putting the brakes on some buyers’ plans. Contract signings softened as well, and homes lingered on the market for around 60 days. Mortgage rates, once near 6% earlier this year, have climbed into the high-6% range, making strategic decisions even more essential.

Interestingly, buyers are starting to gain a touch more leverage: the median list price dipped to $424,500, about 20% of listings saw price cuts, and active inventory grew by roughly 4%. Delistings dropped compared to last year, but even with these new listings, national inventory remains about 11% below pre-pandemic norms—underscoring the ongoing housing shortage beneath the surface.

For my clients seeking homes that support a healthy, vibrant lifestyle, these numbers reinforce the importance of a thoughtful approach. I’m especially watching trends in pricing strategies and seller behavior, as well as how local shifts in Palm Beach and surrounding areas stack up against national patterns. Whether you’re buying or selling, understanding these signals is key to making real estate support your best life.

Inventory is on the move: new listings in the US just edged up 0.4%, and total homes for sale rose 0.5%. Both measures are now at their highest since late Q1 and mid-Q2. Yet, with median home prices holding above $400K and financing costs steady in the mid-6% range, pending sales have slipped by 1.1%—their lowest in six months. Many buyers are pausing, weighing economic uncertainty, or hoping for a break in rates.

For those still searching, this shift could mean more negotiating power—think price cuts, concessions, or even rate buydowns and repairs, especially on homes that have lingered on the market. As someone who believes your home should elevate your lifestyle, I always keep an eye on opportunities that align with both your health and your goals. Pricing right from the start is key for sellers, while buyers may find this window before late Q3 to be especially favorable. My concierge approach is all about navigating these market moments so you can make your next move with confidence and clarity.
