Increased Activity This Weekend

I can't explain it. And I'm not certain yet that it's more than a blip. But there's been a definite pick up in buyer activity over the last couple weeks.  It was especially notable this weekend, but it's been going on for awhile.

I've had more showings of my listings in the last week than in the previous three months. I received one offer on a listing and a call saying another one may be in the works. I wrote one offer this weekend and have several other buyers who will likely write in the next couple of weeks.

There are many reasons that could be behind this. Or it could be nothing at else. But I believe psychology usually drives the market more than any hard, cold economic facts. And, it may be that there's been a subtle shift in the psychology out there in the last couple of weeks.

If you're an agent, are you seeing any signs of this? If you're a buyer, have there been any changes in your thinking recently? And, if you're a seller, are you seeing increased showings of your home?

I'd love to know what you're all seeing and hearing!

re: Increased Activity This Weekend

I've been in the Business since 1986. I usually see this happen at the end of every year. Inventory is lower and the buyers and sellers who are out there are very serious. Many of the buyers want to settle before the end of the year and of course any sellers out there are certainly interested in doing the same!
