What This Means for Sellers
A tightening inventory and stable pricing create a prime opportunity for sellers this fall. With fewer new listings compared to last year and consistent buyer demand, well-presented properties continue to move quickly.
💡 LUX Seller Tip:
Focus on presentation and pricing—professional staging, high-end photography, and highlighting move-in-ready features help your home stand out. This fall, buyers are selective but serious.
