In my experience as a real estate matchmaker, I’ve noticed a real shift in the market—buyers are finally starting to regain some negotiating power. With competition easing up and more homes coming to market, there’s a real opportunity for buyers to pause, compare properties, and truly find a home that fits both their needs and their budget. Builders are also stepping up with incentives, mortgage-rate buydowns, and price adjustments to encourage those who’ve been hesitant to make a move. While elevated mortgage rates are still making everyone think twice, these changes do open up more options and flexibility for buyers. Guiding clients through moments like this, ensuring they have the information and support they need, is why I limit the number of clients I work with at a time—so everyone gets the focus they deserve.
