A growing number of sellers are becoming more flexible with their initial asking prices. Recent reports indicate that in September, approximately 9.2% of home listings experienced a reduction in their listed prices. This trend is increasingly creating opportunities for prospective buyers, provided they can overlook the impact of interest rates. The market boasts a higher volume of active listings and a more significant number of motivated sellers than ever since last December. This fall, the elevated percentage of price reductions could be attributed to sellers setting overly ambitious initial listing prices, buyers exercising caution due to rising interest rates, or a combination of these factors.
