7. Market Season (05:39)

Traditionally in the autumn market, we notice that things slow down, and shopping for a home becomes less of a priority with the holidays just around the corner. 

The number of listings and escrows typically drops during this time, but it will be interesting to watch how the market responds to continued low inventory.
