📈 Spring Selling Season: Opportunities Amidst Challenges
Historically, spring is the busiest time for home sales. According to Zillow, homes listed in the last two weeks of May have sold for an average of 1.6% more, translating to approximately $5,600 on a typical U.S. home . This trend is attributed to increased buyer activity as families aim to settle before the new school year and take advantage of favorable weather conditions.
In New York State, the spring market has shown signs of renewed activity. Pending home sales rose nearly 6% in the Capital Region and 1% statewide year-over-year. New listings also increased, indicating greater market participation . However, challenges persist. Nationwide, pending home sales dropped 6.3% in April, the largest decline since 2022, reflecting buyer hesitation amid economic uncertainty .
