Homebuyers have been fatigued by the past few years of bidding wars, no contingency offers and overpaying for properties. This has been the reality lately and buyers decided to take a step back and re-evaluate the market, especially with the elections around the corner. With that all being said, since Summer ended and we entered the Fall housing market, things have finally taken a more positive turn. And even with the recent elections, things are expected to move steadily in the coming year.
