“The world’s favorite season is spring. All things seem possible in May.” – Edwin Way Teale
The caveat of saying all things seem possible, is that all things ARE possible. Which, of course, embraces good and bad. Just like every day life, in every possible nuance, profession and industry. The month of May continued being a bit weird: The National Association of Realtors continues to grapple with the settling of commission lawsuits. Interest rates crept up a bit. Housing prices were steady in places, while dropping in others. Home builders decided if they were pushing ahead or scaling back. A lot of uncertainty colored everyday information and made a lot of folks hesitant to make a move to sell or buy.
As with every trend, something speaks to it, and something speaks against it. Despite the uncertainty, our Experts Next Door are showing up, adjusting to every new obstacle they face and doing the work necessary to get a listing and make a sale.
