☀️ Less Competition Means More Opportunity
As spring fades, buyer activity naturally slows down. Many who started their search in March or April have either purchased or paused. This creates a golden window in July for buyers who are still in the market. Fewer active buyers means you’re less likely to find yourself in a bidding war—and more likely to secure a home at a fair price.
🔑 Motivated Sellers Want to Move Now
Sellers listing their homes in July are often doing so because of a deadline. Whether it’s a job relocation, school enrollment for kids, or simply capitalizing on the summer spotlight, they are typically more flexible on terms, price, or closing date. That gives you negotiating power as a buyer.
📆 Summer Schedules = Flexibility for Closings
With schools out and more flexible work schedules, summer allows buyers time for home tours, inspections, and moving. This added freedom helps reduce stress and delays, keeping the transaction timeline on track.
🏡 Watch for Price Drops on Older Listings
By July, many homes listed in spring are still on the market—and those sellers may be getting anxious. These properties might be ripe for a price cut or more open to offers below asking. You can often get a better deal just by timing your approach.
