Your Reliable Source for Real Estate Information
We’ve just closed out the first quarter of 2026, and the story is clear—buyer demand showed up early. February sales jumped, and sellers who came to market early and prepared benefited from motivated buyers competing for limited inventory.
Unseasonably warm weather helped bring listings on sooner. By the end of March, inventory remained tight, but buyers began to feel they had slightly more choices.
Three takeaways define the market so far this year: demand remains strong, inventory is still constrained, and pricing has stabilized.
