We’re officially halfway through the year, and the Birmingham market continues to adjust to today’s conditions.

📊 Here’s what we’re seeing in July:

• Days on Market are creeping up — homes are taking longer to sell compared to last summer.

• Inventory is building, giving buyers more options and taking some of the urgency out of the market.

• Interest rates remain in the mid-6% to 7% range, which has kept affordability tight and pushed both buyers and sellers to be more realistic.

💡 For Buyers: This is your chance to slow down, shop around, and negotiate. More homes are sitting on the market, and price drops are becoming more common.

💡 For Sellers: Homes are still moving, but pricing is everything. The best-looking, best-priced homes are attracting offers, while overpriced listings are sitting.

So, is now a good time to buy or sell? The answer depends on your situation — but one thing is clear: Birmingham is shifting into a more balanced market.

If you’re thinking about making a move this summer, let’s talk about a strategy that works in today’s landscape.
