What it means if you’re buying
More choice and calmer pace than 2021–2022. The best homes still move quickly, but you can compare neighborhoods, weigh new‑build incentives, and use inspections and repair credits strategically.
What it means if you’re selling
Pricing to the most recent comps matters. Clean presentation and pre‑list tune‑ups help you compete with new construction. Well‑priced homes in Eagle and North Meridian attract strong interest.
