Is Inventory Getting Back To Normal?
If you’ve been house hunting over the past few years, you know how tough it’s been to find anything that fits your needs. But now? Things are finally shifting — and it’s in your favor.
🏡 Inventory Is Growing Nationwide
There are more homes for sale than there were this time last year — and that’s true all across the country.
📊 According to Realtor.com:
West: Inventory is up nearly 41%
Other regions: At least 19% growth in every area
Why it’s happening:
More people are listing their homes. Some sellers can’t wait any longer for rates to drop.
Homes are taking longer to sell. The average time on market is now 51 days, which is closer to pre-pandemic normal.
✅ More listings = More options for you.
📍 But It Depends on Where You Live
Some areas are nearly back to “normal” inventory levels like we saw in 2017–2019. Others are improving, but still have a ways to go.
That’s why a local agent’s insight really matters. They’ll know:
What’s actually available in your neighborhood
How fast homes are moving
What type of home fits your needs and budget best
💬 Bottom Line
If you’ve been waiting for the right time to find a home you actually love — this might be it. Inventory is up, choices are growing, and it’s finally starting to feel like a fair game again.
