  • Anthony Lamacchia states “Homes listed for sale being up is especially notable considering we are in the midst of the coldest and snowiest winter in a few years. This tells me homes listed will shoot up ALOT more once the weather breaks. Sellers should take note of this and not push their luck too much when pricing and buyers should be happy to have a few more choices.  In a month buyers will have many more choices.”
