Buyers are pulling back and inventory keeps growing. Here’s the week ending October 11:

🔻 4,312 new pending sales, down 16.4% from the same week last year
🔻 32 days median time to contract, 4 days slower than last year
🔺 55,981 active listings, up 19.4% year over year

With mortgage rates still high and the economy uncertain, many buyers are waiting it out. With more homes on the market, expect price growth to slow down this fall.

The fall stall continues: September stats in the Mid-Atlantic show a sharp decline in closed sales, new pending sales, and showing activity compared to last year. Get the breakdown in our latest reports >> BrightMLS.com/MarketReports
