I would say best case is that given political climate, those in control of economic directions take a step back from all political influence as it poses a no-win scenario, and heavily relies upon guidance, direction and leadership from economic/finance professionals to a degree much more significant degree than prior.

Though the current housing market conditions can influence the cost-effectiveness of buying versus building. 

I just think we have so much info with a bunch of influencers that we always pysch ourselves out thinking everything has to be perfect.

Try expanding your sphere of influence.

My thought is there are cultural influences at play here

Our Agent knew we were beat up buyers since we lost 3 homes prior and switched agents..The agent influenced us to go non contingent offer waiving everything… if we wanted to win the house.

This shift in priorities not only influences real estate markets but also encourages communities to adopt more sustainable practices and resilience measures to attract and retain residents.

The timeframe can also be influenced by whether or not the homeowner has legal representation.

Hey @Isadore Nelson - appraisers are 3rd party vendors that won't take it well if anyone tries to influence their decision of the valuation. 

Unless you have a vast network/sphere of influence to keep you afloat, making money being an agent can be really tough and you can literally go months without a paycheck.If you want to be licensed and learn it while you have a W2 job that's different.
