Is now a good time to buy or sell?
The short answer: it depends on your math and your timeline. But for once, we’re in a market where buyers and sellers have room to think.
For sellers:
The market isn’t what it was, but you still have the upper hand if you play it right. Prices are holding strong: Over the last 30 days 34 homes sold in Navarro County. The average sale price in Navarro County hit a record high of $357,000. If you’re realistic with pricing and your home shows well, there are still plenty of motivated buyers out there.
What’s changed is what buyers expect. They’re asking for repairs again. They’re comparing homes. And they’re not overpaying unless the property checks every box. That means your pricing strategy matters. Overreach, and you’ll likely join the growing pool of listings with visible price drops.
Bottom line: Sellers can still get strong offers, but only if the price is right from day one. Overpricing now means longer days on market and likely price cuts.

For buyers:
If you’re shopping this year, you’ve got more to work with. Inventory is up nearly 29% year-over-year, which means less competition and more options across most price points. And, with mortgage rates dipping slightly (now hovering around 6.7%), you’ve probably regained a little buying power. It’s not cheap to borrow, but it’s more manageable than it was this spring.
On top of that, sellers are more flexible. Roughly 1 in 5 listings are taking price cuts, and only about a third of sales are closing above asking. That opens the doors for credits, inspections, and even seller-funded rate buydowns — conversations buyers couldn’t have in 2021.
Bottom line:
In this market, where negotiation skills are key, you need our experience and expertise! If you want to know how to buy or sell wisely in today's market, let's chat! We have the experience needed to negotiate and make sure you get a great deal and a great home.
