@brandy.barela.rea: USA Pending Home Sales Edge up 0.3% We just saw pending home sales in the U.S. tick up 0.3% in mid-Q3—a small step, but worth noting. Even with those higher mortgage rates weighing on buyers’ minds, folks are still writing contracts. In fact, while activity is still about 5% below last year, job gains and income growth have helped some buyers keep pace with climbing home prices. Across the country, contract signings are about 30% lower than what we were seeing before the pandemic—so every pending sale counts as a key early sign for the market. If you remember, 2021 was the high-water mark when mortgage rates hit ~3%, and we haven’t gotten back to that level of activity since. Pending contracts usually close within a month or two (though sometimes financing or inspections slow things down), making them a helpful way to read what’s coming up next in our local markets. Having called Colorado home my whole life, I know how important it is to watch these early signals—especially when helping families, and their four-legged friends, find the right fit. #ColoradoRealEstate #CORealtor #ColoradoHomes #COLiving #ColoradoProperty #RockyMountainHomes #ColoradoListings #COHomeSales #DenverRealEstate #ColoradoLiving
