Palmetto Market Pulse: Buyer Leaning
Available homes are outpacing pending demand. Homes are still selling, but buyers generally have more time to compare properties and more room to negotiate than they would in a highly competitive market.
Pending ratio: 33%. About 3-4 out of every 10 homes for sale are finding a buyer — a buyer's market. Most homes are still waiting for a buyer. Expect it to take longer and price to stand out. Homes that sold took about 63 days to sell, which is so-so.
