Sellers market
If there are only a few houses for sale and a lot of people who want to buy them, it’s a seller’s market. The people need more available real estate!
In a hot seller’s market, your buyer is not likely to get any closing costs paid by the seller, and they probably won’t get a home for less than the list price.
Buyers market
If there are a ton of houses for sale and fewer buyers, it’s a buyer’s market. The people need more buyers!
Sales prices are usually more negotiable for buyers in a buyer’s market because the real estate supply is high. In a hot buyer’s market, the buyer can expect to get a “better deal” on a piece of real estate.
