Responses to Redfin’s Real-Time Seller Survey indicated a dramatic shift in the confidence of home sellers in the second quarter—45 percent of sellers believe now is a good time to sell, up from just 22 percent in the first quarter and 15 percent in the fourth quarter. Meanwhile, 44 percent of sellers believe now is a good time to buy. This is the first time sellers have been more optimistic about the market for selling than for buying since Redfin began conducting this survey, in the third quarter of last year. Nearly a third of sellers have no major concerns about selling, up from just 19 percent in the first quarter.
