Let's take a look at what's happening to prices right now. (And NO, the market is not crashing, it's just normalizing!)
Facts:
Nationwide, 1 in every 15 listings had a price reduction in the last 30 days. That's about 6.5% of active listings in the country, however, some markets have seen 50% of active listings get a price reduction in the past 30 days.
The five metro areas with the highest percentage of listings with price cuts last week were Wenatchee-East Wenatchee, Washington (53%); Idaho Falls, Idaho (52%); Carson City, Nevada (52%); Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos, Texas (52%); and Waco, Texas (51%).

This is all happening at the same time that prices are still up by at least 3% this year, and are expected to end up averaging about 5% by year's end.  This figure shows you that we are normalizing, not crashing. We are still suffering from a lack of supply.
Remember this: At $52 Trillion, The total value of homes in the US is up 49% since before the pandemic.  49%! So these price adjustments won't be catastrophic to most sellers. We're a very long way away from short sales, so don't go thinking the sky is falling.
What should you do when you're the listing agent?  You can price it to sit, or you can price it to sell. The average mortgage payment on a $400,000 home is now over $3000/month with taxes and insurance. That's nearly double what it was a year ago. Any buyer still looking is serious, motivated, qualified, and scarce!
Pricing your listings accurately in the first place will save you from having to have price reduction conversations later. (Though we'll give you price reduction scripts later this week and tons of them in Premier Coaching).
