Are you holding off on selling your home because you’re unsure if buyers are still in the market? With today’s mortgage rates and prices, it’s easy to wonder if people are still making moves. But here’s some perspective that might surprise you.
The housing market isn’t at a standstill. While sales slowed last year compared to a typical market, 4.15 million homes still sold (excluding new construction), according to the National Association of Realtors (NAR). And experts predict that number will increase in 2025. That means more people will be moving—and they need homes to buy. Homes like yours.
Homes Are Selling Every Minute—Literally
Even if 2025 simply matches last year’s pace, here’s what that looks like:
🏡 4.15 million homes sold ÷ 365 days = 11,370 homes sold per day
⏳ 11,370 homes ÷ 24 hours = 474 homes sold per hour
📌 474 homes ÷ 60 minutes = roughly 8 homes sold every minute
Just in the time it took you to read this, another 8 homes sold.
So, if you’ve been hesitating because you think buyers aren’t out there, let this be your reassurance: the demand is still strong.
Why Are Buyers Still Making Moves?
Even with higher mortgage rates and home prices, people continue to buy and sell. Why? Because life keeps moving forward. Whether it’s a new job, a growing family, or a major life change, buyers are still searching for the right home—and yours could be exactly what they’re looking for.
