🏠 See the home that went 55% over

This week will be the last chance for sellers to get their homes on the market before the Thanksgiving and holiday slowdown sets in. We’re curious to see if there is a last bump in new listings for sale!

Below are some crazy examples of recent bidding wars. However, looking back at sales in November, only 27% sold above the asking price, 28% sold for the asking price, and 45% sold below the asking price.

Buyers, it isn’t too late to get into a home for the holidays. As a reminder, now through December is your best opportunity to get a below-list price offer accepted.

Good luck with the bomb cyclone tonight, will be a wild night for those of us on floating homes!
