“With warmer weather, inventory levels are increasing, bringing more stability in certain parts of the market. The highly sought-after properties in the $300,00 to $500,000 range are still in high demand, with many being sold in multiple offers and setting new pricing precedents. Inventory levels are expected to rise, with rising demand for starter properties, and prices are expected to continue rising.” Peter Kubiczek
