Last year I kept hearing it:

“We’re just going to wait and see what happens.”

Some buyers felt priced out.
Some didn’t love the monthly payment.
Some were simply unsure about the housing market.

Fast forward 12 months… and the math has changed.

More showings. More offers. More pressure.

It’s “What does this mean for my move?”

Because in real estate, timing isn’t everything — but it matters.
