Buying a Home in a Constantly Changing Market
By Mike Aanerud, Realtor® | Paso Robles & North County Real Estate
The real estate market is always shifting — interest rates adjust, inventory moves, and buyer trends change. In 2025, we are seeing a steady transition toward a buyer’s market, opening doors for homebuyers who are ready and prepared.
Buyer’s Market vs. Seller’s Market
Knowing the difference helps you time your move wisely:
Seller’s Market
-
More buyers than available homes
-
Higher prices, low inventory
-
Competitive offers and bidding wars
Buyer’s Market
-
More homes than buyers
-
More negotiating power for buyers
-
Better opportunities and favorable terms
Right now, buyers are seeing more options, more negotiating leverage, and less competition compared to previous years — a great window to act.
