We should have another solid 60 days (maybe 75) of strong buying activity (contracts being signed) during September and October before things start to slow down in November - and then really slow down in December and January.

If you are intent on selling your home before the end of the year, you may want to consider a price reduction now, rather than later. 

If you reduce your list price next Monday -- on September 7th -- you likely have a good 60 - 75 days of exposure to a larger pool of buyers before contract activity slows down.

If you wait, and reduce your price on November 15, you have already had a large number of buyers pass your house by - and we'll be rolling into Thanksgiving and then Christmas.
