New listings hit a four-year high
The real estate landscape is always evolving, and right now, we’re seeing a notable change: new listings have reached their highest point in four years, with an 8% rise—the largest surge since August 2022. For anyone considering making a move, this means there are more options out there than we’ve seen in quite some time. Active listings are approaching balanced levels, though it’s important to recognize that pending sales have dipped to a low, reminding us just how nuanced this market can be. Even with a 2.2% increase in median home prices, mortgage rates at 6.66% are putting pressure on affordability for many families. Having spent my career guiding clients through both the emotional and financial sides of homeownership, I know firsthand how complex these transitions can feel. If you’re weighing your options or just want to better understand today’s market dynamics, I’m here to help you navigate each step with confidence.

In Japan, buying a new house is a race against time.
A standard 35-year mortgage often outlasts the building's value. By the final payment, the structure is usually worth little or nothing it depreciates to near zero after ~20-30 years, so you mainly own the land.
This 'scrap-and-build' culture treats homes like temporary goods, not appreciating assets."

Fed Raises Key Rate to 3.75%-4%
The Federal Reserve has just raised its key rate by 0.25%, bringing it to a range of 3.75%-4%—the first increase since July 2023. As someone who guides families through the home buying and selling journey, I pay close attention to these moves. Rate changes like this can have ripple effects on mortgage rates and affordability, which is why I’m committed to helping you understand how these shifts might impact your plans. The Fed also signaled that another hike could be on the horizon this year, with inflation still sitting above their 2% target. Their next meeting is set for October 27-28, 2026, when they’ll reassess economic conditions. My mission has always been to provide clarity and support as you navigate the financial and emotional sides of moving. Staying informed helps me give you the best guidance possible as you consider your next steps in real estate.

New Listings Rise as Summer Comes to a Close
As summer winds down, I’m noticing a subtle uptick in new home listings—up 1.2%, reaching a three-month high. At the same time, pending sales have dipped by 1.3%, marking their lowest point since March. Median asking prices slipped by 0.1%, even as median sale prices climbed 1.8% year-over-year. These shifts come as higher mortgage rates and economic uncertainty continue to influence the market. For many families, deciding to buy or sell is about more than just numbers—it’s a major life transition. My experience as both a Realtor and a certified life coach has shown me how important it is to navigate these changes thoughtfully, keeping both financial and emotional well-being in focus. Whether you’re getting ready to make a move or just keeping an eye on the market, understanding these trends can help you make confident decisions about your next step.
