You may have heard of the term seller’s market, but what exactly does that mean? In sellers’ markets, increasing demand for homes drives up prices. Here are some of the drivers of demand: Economic factors the local labor market heats up, bringing an influx of new residents, pushing up home prices before more homes can be built.... Interest rates trending downward improves home affordability, creating more interested buyers, particularly for first time home buyers who can afford bigger homes as the cost of money goes lower. A short-term spike in interest rates - may compel on the fence buyers to make a purchase if they believe the upward trend will continue. Buyers want to make a move before their purchasing power (the amount they can borrow) gets eroded. Low inventory - fewer homes on the market because of a lack of new construction. Prices for existing homes may go up because there are fewer units available. See more

This beautiful contemporary house located in Five Points is incredibly unique! It initially caught our attention with its amazing screened porch which offers soaring ceilings with skylights and a dreamy outdoor haven to relax in. The contemporary design is carried throughout the house from the fun green kitchen cabinetry to the colorfully tiled bathrooms.
