Thinking about when to make your move? Based on national trends, the week of September 27 to October 3 in 2026 is shaping up as a prime opportunity for homebuyers. During this window, active listings could be up 31.9% compared to the start of the year and 13.3% higher than the average week, offering more choices for buyers across the country. Listing prices are projected to sit 3.5% below the seasonal peak—potentially saving you about $14,000 on a median-priced US home near $416,000. With competition expected to be 30.1% lower than its annual peak and homes likely spending around 64 days on the market, buyers will have more breathing room to explore their options. The early fall environment tends to open up inventory, while later in the season might see even more price flexibility. If you’re hoping for a less stressful home search with plenty of options, this timeframe could be a sweet spot to consider. As always, I’m here to help make your journey as smooth and comfortable as possible.
