Our market has been pretty slow for the past 3 years but has picked up recently as interest rates have come down and buyers seem to be coming off the sidelines. 

Many existing homeowners will remain “rate-locked,” so refinancing slows, turnover slows, and new home sales get pressured.For investors, home-buyers, and real-estate professionals:This uptick in wholesale inflation could further suppress demand and push valuation pressure on housing, especially among marginal buyers and investors who count on rate cuts to improve cash flow or refinance.What do you think will happen next?
