Recent contract timelines show why delay can be expensive.
If you are telling yourself one more weekend will not matter, I would challenge that. In Schenectady, NY, recent contract timelines say hesitation can push a workable search into a much harder one.
Homes moving into contract did so in a typical 17 days last month, and pending homes at month end showed a typical 14 days on market. Supply was just 1 month, while recent closed deals still came in at about 101.37% of asking. For a buyer in Schenectady, NY, that is a narrow decision window. The market recently did not give much room for a long watch-and-see approach, especially when homes were moving quickly and sellers still captured pricing strength. Tour as soon as a strong match appears. Decide your non-negotiables before the showing, not after it. Keep your financing and paperwork ready so you can act without scrambling.
