How Fast Will Your Home Sell in the 2024 Market?

Selling a house can be a daunting process, especially in today's ever-changing market. As we move through 2024, several key factors are influencing how quickly homes are selling. This blog will explore the growing supply of homes for sale, how this trend is impacting listings today, and why working with an experienced agent is crucial to ensure your house stands out and sells quickly. Let's dive in.

The Growing Supply of Homes for Sale

The real estate market is witnessing a significant increase in the number of homes for sale. According to HousingWire, "The inventory of homes for sale has grown by 20% year-over-year, providing buyers with more options and reducing the competitive frenzy we've seen in recent years." This growing supply can have a profound effect on how long it takes to sell your house.

How It’s Impacting Listings Today

With more homes on the market, the dynamics of selling have shifted. Inman highlights that "sellers need to be more strategic in pricing and marketing their homes to attract buyers in a market where options are plentiful." Buyers are taking their time to compare different listings, leading to longer days on market for many homes. CoreLogic further explains, "The average time a home stays on the market has increased by 15%, as buyers navigate through a wider selection." 

An Agent Will Help Your House Stand Out and Sell Quickly

In a market with abundant listings, having a knowledgeable and proactive real estate agent is more important than ever. The National Association of Realtors (NAR) states, "Homes listed with a real estate agent typically sell 30% faster than those listed by owners." An agent can provide invaluable assistance with staging, pricing, and marketing your home to ensure it captures the attention of potential buyers.

Homelight adds, "Top real estate agents have the local market expertise and negotiation skills that can significantly shorten the selling process." By leveraging their network and resources, an agent can position your home to sell quickly even in a crowded market.
