“In early November, few homeowners decided to list amidst all of the uncertainty and anxiety about the election outcome,” said Redfin chief economist Daryl Fairweather. “But that anxiety didn’t stop buyers from scooping up the homes that were left for sale. However, our data is starting to show a slowdown in the number of people viewing homes, which is typical for this time of year. If that trend continues the way we’d expect it to, buyers who remain in the market may start to encounter less competition than we’ve grown accustomed to since the summer, before the market likely returns to full speed in the new year.”
