If you’ve been hearing that home sales are slowing down, it’s natural to wonder if now is the right time to sell. While the market isn’t as fast-paced as a few years ago, that doesn’t mean buyers have disappeared. In fact, homes continue to sell—every minute, multiple buyers are making moves. Life changes like new jobs, growing families, and new beginnings keep the market active year-round. So if you’re thinking about selling, don’t let the headlines hold you back—there are still plenty of buyers actively looking for homes like yours.
Every Minute, 8 Homes Are Sold
To put things into perspective, let’s look at the latest data from the National Association of Realtors (NAR). Based on the current pace, we’re on track to sell 4.03 million homes this year — not including new construction.
Breaking it down:
4.03 million homes ÷ 365 days = about 11,041 homes sold per day
11,041 homes ÷ 24 hours = roughly 460 homes sold every hour
460 homes ÷ 60 minutes = around 8 homes sold every single minute
That means while you’re reading this, about 8 homes have already been sold. Let that sink in—buyers are actively making moves, and sellers are successfully closing deals every minute of the day.
The Right Agent Makes All the Difference
If you’ve been holding off on selling your house because you think buyers aren’t out there, let this reassure you – there are still buyers looking to buy.
However, with the market finding its balance, successfully selling your home today requires more than just a “For Sale” sign. You’ve got to price your house right, market it well, and know how to reach the buyers who are ready to act.
That’s where the expertise of a trusted local agent becomes invaluable. We’ll help you navigate the current market landscape, showcase your home’s unique value, and guide you through every step to ensure your selling experience is smooth and successful.
