Irvine Market Update - March 🏑

Irvine Market Update - March 🏑

OPPORTUNITIES IN TODAY'S MARKET Global events continue to shape the housing market, with mortgage rates recently moving from 5.99% to around 6.36%. While rates have ticked up, these shifts are creating new opportunities for buyers and sellers to make strategic moves as demand continues to adjust.


ATTENTION BUYERS: Inventory has increased by 4% in just the past couple of weeks and continues to climb as we move into the Spring market. This means more options, less competition, and better opportunities to negotiateβ€”making now a strategic time to enter the market before competition heats up further.

ATTENTION SELLERS: Buyer demand has increased by 6% in just the past couple of weeks, reaching its highest level since last August, signaling strong buyer activity as we head into the Spring market. With demand expected to peak soon, sellers who list now can take advantage of motivated buyers and favorable market momentum.

Another proud mom moment from our recent trip to the March Nationals fencing tournament in Cleveland. My daughter finished Top 16 and earned her E rating in the tournament. It’s been amazing to see her dedication and training continue to pay off. Grateful for moments like this in the middle of a busy season!
