Days on market can tell you more than how long a home has been listed. It may provide clues about demand, pricing, condition, and seller motivation.A newly listed home could require quick action, while one that has been available for several weeks may create an opportunity to ask questions or negotiate.However, the displayed number does not always tell the complete story. A listing can be removed and relisted, causing the DOM counter to restart.Before making an offer, ask your agent to review the property's full listing history and cumulative days on market. Better information can help you evaluate the seller's position, structure a stronger offer, and make a more confident buying decision.

There isn't a "right age" to downsize. The best time is when your home no longer fits your lifestyle. Maybe the kids have moved out, maintenance has become overwhelming, or you'd rather reduce expenses and spend more time traveling or enjoying life. For others, downsizing can free up equity for retirement or simplify everyday living. The decision is personal and should balance your financial goals with the lifestyle you want. Before making a move, it's worth exploring all your options. If you're wondering whether downsizing makes sense for you, I'd be happy to discuss the pros and cons and help you create a plan that supports your next stage of life.
