Change is Good
We’ve all known that the frenetic pace the real estate industry experienced over the last two years could not, and should not, be sustained. What we’re experiencing now is a return to normal led, in part, by price stabilization, which experts predict may continue moving forward. While prime real estate, as we have here in Santa Barbara, continues to garner interest, our persistent limited inventory creates a pent-up demand for buyers. Still, today’s buyers can take a deep breath before making an offer while sellers can rejoice this holiday season knowing that the price of their real estate in our beautiful slice of paradise is holding steady.
