What This Means for Sellers
Buford is still slightly seller-favorable, but buyers now have more breathing room. Homes are still selling close to asking price, but the jump to 38 median days in RPR shows buyers are taking more time.
What This Means for Buyers
Buyers may have more negotiating space than they did in the hottest market conditions. The increase in inventory and longer timelines suggest that not every home will move instantly.
