Welcome back, everyone—Connor with Honor here, your friendly First Responder turned Realtor, bringing you another deep dive into the Santa Clarita real estate world! Today, we’re discussing a critical shift in our market: the rising number of listings and why some sellers may be overshooting their pricing by using “future values” rather than current market comps.
First, we’ll break down why inventory levels are climbing more swiftly than usual this season. Is it a sign of a changing market, or just a post-holiday bump? We’ll talk about how buyer demand still exists—but isn’t always willing to chase overpriced listings. Overconfidence could be costing sellers valuable exposure and offers, resulting in stale days on market and eventual price reductions.
We’ll also cover what it really means to base your price on data from 90 to 180 days in the future. How do you time this right without alienating potential buyers? You’ll hear direct tips on making sure your property stands out amidst increasing competition, whether that’s a fresh coat of paint or a fair list price anchored by realistic comparable sales.
Then, it’s off to the buyer’s corner: Is that newly increased inventory a golden opportunity for you? Yes and no. We’ll discuss the nuances of negotiating in a market that hasn’t fully tipped toward a “buyer’s market,” but is certainly friendlier than last year’s ultra-competitive frenzy. We’ll also look at potential interest-rate movements, the importance of pre-approval, and how to zero in on the listings that match your goals before someone else beats you to it.
Finally, don’t forget to check out my in-depth blog post at
