You may be hearing that a near-record number of homeowners are pulling their houses off the market.

Open up a home search and you'll see them. Listings that have been on the market for two months. Three. Some longer.

Remember a few years back when sellers held all the power and buyers were stuck offering way over asking or waiving inspections just to get a chance at the house? In many markets, those days are behind us.

Want Waunakee schools but also something a bit closer to west Madison/Middleton? This sweet cul-de-sac is on the outskirts of Northlake neighborhood. Super short walk to Pheasant Branch Conservancy, with miles of walking paths - a true respite from daily life. This floor plan has some really great features, including a giant mudroom with powder room (not shared with the laundry!), flex space at the top of the stair (office, crafting, reading nook?), a covered patio and 3 car garage. Two adjacent outlots give some nice elbow room between the neighbors behind. Unfinished lower level is loaded with potential for more finished space, with high/flush ceiling and rough-in for a full bath. Just 3 years old and looks brand new. MLS 2024690

Yes, some areas are seeing slight price declines. But they're the exception, not the rule.
That's why it's important to be careful about where you're getting your housing market information.

The internet loves dramatic headlines. The data usually tells a more complete story.
