The detail buyers keep stopping on at 4589 Strathmore is the walk in closet off the primary bedroom.

It sounds minor until you've lived somewhere without one. A real closet keeps the bedroom feeling like a bedroom. Pair it with all four bedrooms and the utility room on the same upper floor and the daily rhythm of the house just works.

Quick question: what's the one word you'd use to describe this year so far?

For a lot of people, it's stressful. And when everything feels shaky, it’s easy to second-guess the move you were ready to make. But the truth is, the housing market is one thing that’s been remarkably stable.

Home prices have been relatively steady for about 4 years now. The number of homes for sale is right about where it was last year (up 2%). And mortgage rates have held in the same general 6-7% range since late 2022.

A steady market comes with a perk. You can actually plan. What works for your budget today probably won’t look all that different in a few months.

You don’t have to wait for things to calm down. The housing market’s already pretty steady. Send me a DM or drop a comment below, and let's compare the market you walked away from to the one that's here now.
