šŸ“‰ 1. Prices Have Cooled—but That Doesn’t Mean They’ve Crashed

Yes, prices are adjusting in many markets—but not crashing.

The typical price decline since the pandemic peak is only about 5–10% in areas that experienced a massive run-up.

That’s a mild dip, not a free fall.

šŸ“ˆ 2. Most Sellers Still Have Huge Equity Gains

Even with recent price adjustments, sellers who bought before 2022 are typically sitting on massive equity.

In many cities, prices are still 30%–50% higher than in 2019.

That’s what we mean by ā€œyou’re not losing, you’re cashing out.ā€

šŸ“Š 3. Not All Price Adjustments Are Created Equal

Cities like Austin and Miami saw price increases of 50–60% during the pandemic—and their recent 10–17% declines are just a market correction.

Meanwhile, places like New York, Chicago, and Philadelphia haven’t seen price drops at all.

šŸ˜ļø 4. Price Adjustments Vary by Region—and Even by Neighborhood

Midwestern and Northeastern markets like Minneapolis and NYC are holding strong due to tight inventory.

Meanwhile, markets in Texas and Florida are seeing modest declines as inventory grows. What’s true for one zip code might not be true two miles away.

🧮 5. Real-World Math Helps Buyers & Sellers Understand the Market

Example: A $500,000 house today may have sold for $375,000 in 2019. That’s a 33% increase.

Even if it peaked at $525,000 in 2022 and ā€˜adjusted’ to $500,000 now, the owner still gained big over time. Help your clients see the full picture.

šŸ¤” 6. Median Listing Prices Don’t Tell the Whole Story

When lower-priced homes enter the market, the median can drop even if actual home values haven’t.

Always use tools like Case-Shiller or FHFA indexes for more accurate appreciation data when explaining pricing trends.

šŸ“ƒ 7. Show Sellers Their Net—and Remind Them They’re Not Buying at the Peak

Use a seller’s net sheet to walk through real proceeds after closing costs, commissions, and loan payoffs.

Even after a 5–10% price dip, most sellers come out ahead. If they’re buying again, remind them they’re not buying at the top of the market either.
