What's Happening in Lambertville and Temperance

03/14/2026

The market isn’t frozen. Online searches of “homes for sale” are up over 20% since last year. Let’s talk if you want to get your house in front of these buyers.

Now may be a better time to sell than you'd expect.

Since mortgage rates have come down compared to their high earlier this year, more buyers are re-starting their home search. And here’s the data to prove it.

This graph shows homebuyer activity is hovering at the highest level so far this year.

More people are applying for home loans. And it’s already turning into more homes going under contract.
That jump in activity opens up real opportunities for sellers right now.
There’s a renewed sense of energy in the market going into 2026. And homeowners who decide to sell can ride that shift in momentum.

If you want to get in on the action and get your house in front of these eager buyers, DM me.

Buying your first home can feel frustrating when the options don’t seem to match your budget. But if you check out townhomes, the numbers may actually work better than you’d expect.

Townhomes make up nearly 1 in 5 new homes being built today, which is the highest share on record.

And with more townhomes on the market, you have more options in what’s typically one of the most affordable ways into homeownership.

Sure, they may be a bit smaller – but that usually means they're priced a bit lower, too.

So why not consider a townhouse for your first place? DM me if you want to see what’s available locally.
