Real Estate Right Now Podcast

Did Buyers Just Take Control of the Market?

On this Real Estate Right Now with Jay Izso, we’re diving into what may be the biggest change we’ve seen in the housing market in years. Join us as Jay welcomes Paul Fitts, Senior Lending Officer with Advantage Lending, to unpack what’s really happening in today’s real estate climate—and why buyers may finally be getting the upper hand.

Fresh research from the Triangle MLS reveals something surprising: when you remove new construction from the equation, resale home values have actually declined compared to this time last year. That’s right—after years of relentless price growth, the market is cooling, and it’s shifting fast. Paul and Jay break down the numbers and what they mean for both buyers and sellers who’ve grown used to a one-sided game.
