If you've been sitting on the fence, August brought breathing room. Homes sold in 22 days, down from 24 last month, so you still need to move quickly when you find the right property. But the sold-to-list ratio dropped to 97.4%, which means offers are coming in under asking more often than they were in July. That's a small but real shift in your favor. Inventory supply climbed to 4.1 months, up nearly 10% compared to last August. That's still a seller's market by definition, anything under six months is, but you have more homes to choose from and a bit more time to think. The median sold price fell to $509,700, down over 13% month over month. Prices move around in August, so that's not a trend yet, but it does mean you're not chasing the same sharp appreciation you would have seen earlier this year.
