Plenty has changed since the times of real estate during a pandemic...
[1] Mortgage interest rates are now 6% instead of 3%.
[2] Sellers are often receiving a few offers instead of a flurry of offers.
[3] Homes are often selling at or just above asking, instead of waaaay above asking.
But some things have not changed...
Home sellers in many price ranges (and locations and property types) still need to be plan to be kicked out of their homes for a few days when they list them for sale.
Is this happening for all new listings? No
Are all or most of the showings turning into offers? No
Can it get a bit logistically challenging for sellers to have so many showings within the first few days on the market? Yes
Do most sellers decide it is worth it? Yes
Happy Spring, and let me know if you want to get kicked out of your home for a few days... ;-)
