How is the market doing?
That is one of the questions we hear most often. The answer depends on price range, location, condition, timing, and the specific home, but we keep an eye on current MLS Grid data so the conversation starts with real numbers.
For a simple snapshot, here is what has happened with three-bedroom homes since May 19th:
355
three-bedroom homes listed for sale.
$271,767
average original list price for those new listings, trimmed to reduce outlier noise.
$259,563
average sale price for the 294 three-bedroom homes that closed in the same period.
Those closed homes originally listed for an average of $266,282. That list-to-sale relationship is useful context, but every home still needs its own pricing conversation.
What can we help you do?

Mariya is absolutely worthy to recommend. She is energetic, enthusiastic
and sees your buying as her own. The buying process needs a high amount
of communication and Mariya was definitely always on my side, giving me
constructive suggestion without any pressure. She even helped me enter
the crawl space to inspect the furnace twice! Fully understanding the house
condition made us stand high when negotiating the price. Isn't this what
we buyers are all looking for? If you are searching for your next dream
home, Mariya is definitely the agent you would like to work with.
Thank you, Mariya!
