Lower Mortgage Rates Help Push Home Sales to Nearly 3-Year High While the decrease in rates is helping to offset higher home prices, buyers still face a challenging housing market.

Important for our community!

Our city recognizes the challenges Cleveland families face right now. The federal shutdown and cuts to SNAP benefits have placed an unfair and unexpected burden on households that were already stretched thin. No one should have to choose between keeping the lights on and putting food on the table. This moratorium is about giving our residents breathing room, stability, and dignity while Washington works to resolve this crisis. Residents seeking assistance or payment plan options can contact: Cleveland Water Customer Service: 216-664-3130 Cleveland Public Power Customer Service: 216-664-4600 The City will continue to monitor the shutdown’s impact and stands ready to implement additional support measures as needed.

Don't let the season scare you away from a new home!

The median days on market, currently at 15, indicate a fast-paced environment. Homes are selling quickly, which is another signal of high demand. Sellers should be ready for a swift process once their home is listed, while buyers need to be well-prepared to make timely decisions and offers.

With a median sold price of $143,450, Cleveland’s market presents a relatively affordable option compared to many other areas. This price point offers a promising opportunity for first-time buyers and those looking to invest in a home without overextending financially. Sellers should be mindful of this median price when setting expectations for their listing.

TGIF!

I have been working hard in the background and can happily announce I'm officially a realtor of Ohio! I studied and passed both parts on the first time, I still know a good thing or two on proper study habits and ways to handle test anxiety!

I've been working with property and casualty insurance for many years now so my calling to helping homeowners continues to grow! I joined a wonderful team and already working nonstop to find the right buyers their perfect homes.

Interesting, maybe some news for those applicable! Mortgage rates are also continuing to drop but will we see sub 6% anytime soon? We'll keep watching and tracking how it goes. Lots of down payment assistance programs around!
