Be honest. Would you scroll past a house that’s been listed and sitting for months?
A few years ago, that made sense. Today, not so much.

Homes are taking longer to sell across the board. On average, it takes 73 days right now – which is typical for this time of year.

So, a house that’s been sitting doesn’t automatically mean something’s wrong. It may have been priced a little high, launched into heavy competition, or just didn’t stand out online.

And here’s what many buyers miss: sellers who’ve been waiting are often more open to negotiating.

So, before you scroll past, take a second look. Sometimes the best opportunity is the one everyone else skipped.

Why Rising Foreclosure Headlines Aren’t a Red Flag for Today’s Housing Market

Foreclosure activity may be rising, but it’s still well within a normal range – and nowhere close to the danger zones of the past. But the headlines are doing more to terrify than clarify. And that’s exactly why having a trusted real estate expert you can call on is so important.

When you hear something in the news or see something on social about housing that worries you, please reach out so you have the context to understand what’s really happening and how it impacts you (if at all).

If you’ve seen headlines saying foreclosure activity has been climbing for 10 straight months, it’s easy to assume that's a sign of trouble for the housing market.

Headlines about the double-digit jump in foreclosure filings sound scary – until you zoom out.

This visual says everything.

The left side shows foreclosure filings in the years around the housing crash. The right side shows the last few years.

And here’s what it tells me. Even with the uptick in 2025, we’re nowhere near crisis territory.

Strong lending standards + high equity are keeping homeowners on solid ground.

If you want the real story behind today’s data (not the scary headline version), DM me and I’ll send you the facts. No clickbait.
