Can you get a house at list price?

By Andee Zeigler, October 18, 2021

Yes, yes you can!!

My first time home buyers just closed, at list,  on a sweet townhouse in the Hollywood District, super clean inspection and move in ready!  Fast forward to this weekend,  two more buyers in contract, one at list and one just $5k over.  Both of these buyers were competing in multiple offer situations, they had strong terms that didn’t give up their contingencies. These two homes are also in great condition and we anticipate fairly clean inspections.

As we creep towards the dreary dark wet days of winter we are seeing a shift in the market. We are still seeing multiple offers  but the pace feels more manageable and the buyers can safely get their hopes up a bit more  Sometimes the late fall market is a mad dash of houses that need to move and the inventory is of homes that need love, it feels different this year.  We are still seeing some stunner listings hit the market and it’s keeping the joy of touring alive!

If you have been on the fence about making a move or dipping your toe into homeownership, the madness of Spring is waining, buyer fatigue is more avoidable and you can get a sweet spot to love before the cold of winter.
