As we look toward 2026, we are seeing a significant shift in the local real estate landscape.
In high-end markets like ours, the inventory of available homes has increased sharply, with over 500,000 more sellers than buyers currently active nationwide.
In this environment, “luxury” is being redefined by move-in readiness.
The Cost of “Minor” Imperfections: Current 2025 market data shows that today’s buyers are more selective than ever.
Minor cosmetic issues that were overlooked two years ago—such as settlement cracks, dated wallpaper, or textured ceilings—are now being used by buyers to negotiate significant price reductions, often far exceeding the actual cost of the repair.
