This week represents a positive shift in activity where listings are up (+31% vs 2023). 2026 is the highest inventory level in this 4-year comparison.
Appointments are up over 10% for the same period last year illustrating new buyer confidence, and when you combine it with increased inventories we should be witnessing a strong end to the month of February.
Buyers in 2026 were delayed, they waited, watched rates and now they have more options.
Historically:
• Listings rise first
• Buyer engagement increases
• Sales follow 2 to 4 weeks later.
