Are You Hesitant to Sell Because of Current Market Conditions? Here’s Why You Shouldn’t Wait.

If you're holding off on selling your home due to concerns about interest rates and home prices, you're not alone. But here’s some perspective that might change your mind.

Despite what you might think, the housing market isn’t at a standstill. Last year, even though sales were lower than usual, around 4.15 million homes still sold (excluding new construction), according to the National Association of Realtors (NAR). And 2025 is expected to see that number rise. That means more people will be moving this year, and they’ll need homes to buy—homes like yours.

Even if the market matches last year’s pace, here’s what that looks like:


Homes Are Selling Every Minute

  1. 4.15 million homes ÷ 365 days = 11,370 homes sold each day
  2. 11,370 homes ÷ 24 hours = 474 homes sold per hour
  3. 474 homes ÷ 60 minutes = approximately 8 homes sold every minute

Think about that for a second. In the time it’s taken you to read this, 8 homes have sold.

So, if you’ve been holding off on selling because you think there aren’t any buyers out there, it’s time to rethink that assumption. The truth is, there are still plenty of buyers actively looking for homes. While higher prices and mortgage rates have slowed some buyers down, they haven’t stopped the market altogether. Many buyers are still motivated to move because, let’s face it—life doesn’t wait for perfect market conditions.

With the right agent by your side, you can position your home in front of these buyers while others hesitate and delay their plans. Let’s get your house sold.


Bottom Line

On average, over 11,000 homes sell every day, and yours could be one of them. In the time it took you to read this, another 8 homes sold.

When you’re ready to take the next step, let’s connect so you have an agent to create that perfect strategy.
