2 Main Takeaways
1) the pace of homes being listed and homes being sold has been similar over the past month and without any major jumps - signaling a healthy market pace for the summer
2) it’s still a pretty good time to buy (before amount of available listings decreases and as a result demand for homes increases) even though more buyers are coming into the market and “solds” are climbing towards “listed” numbers
