Fewer Homeowners Are Selling<\/p>\n\n\n\n

House hunters feeling that inventory continues to tighten are right, a new report shows. The number of homes for sale is down 28.4% compared to a year ago, according to realtor.com\u00ae data. Two years ago, before the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of active listings was 60% higher than today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Winter months tend to be slower for the housing market as fewer sellers list homes. But this winter, inventories have fallen more than normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Economists downplay the effect of the pandemic, particularly the omicron variant, as the culprit. Instead, they say homeowners are hesitant to sell because they\u2019re concerned about having to buy a new home themselves. That has prompted many to delay their selling plans, even as they watch the growing amount of equity<\/a> in their properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than one in four potential sellers recently surveyed said they were choosing not to sell in the near term because they couldn\u2019t find a home they wanted in their price range, according to realtor.com\u00ae\u2019s research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith housing costs rising, as home prices and mortgage rates both increase, affordability is more important than ever to households,\u201d says Danielle Hale, realtor.com\u00ae\u2019s chief economist. \u201cData suggests that this may be as true for sellers, many of whom will also purchase a new home, as it is for home buyers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, home buyers are finding fewer and fewer homes for sale at a time when they may be feeling in a rush. They want to take advantage of still-low mortgage rates before expected increases hit this spring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
