As the Rock N Roll Real Estate Agent here in Cincinnati, I keep a close eye on the rhythm of the housing market. Right now, we’re seeing new U.S. home listings up 2.1%, hitting a four-year high, while active listings have nudged up 0.4%. Pending sales, however, slipped 0.1%—their lowest point since February. Home prices are still on the rise, up 2.2% over last year, and mortgage rates remain steady at 6.66%. For those navigating the Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky areas, these numbers set the tempo for your next move. Having represented buyers and sellers since 1989 and taught home buying at UC, I know each shift brings new opportunities and challenges. Staying tuned in to these trends helps you make the right call when the time is right.
