The best next move is the one that fits the current pace, price gap, and your timing.
If you are trying to decide your next housing move before another month gets away from you, my advice is to make the decision from the recent pace and pricing reality, not from uncertainty. In Richardson, TX, supply stood at 2.95 months last month, which tells me this market still rewards people who are clear and ready.
If you only remember one closed data point right now, make it 2.95 months of supply last month. That matters because Richardson, TX still had limited enough choice to reward preparation. A typical sale took 31 days, and recent offers landed at 96.1% of asking, so neither side should approach the market casually.
The practical impact is that both pricing and timing still matter. The typical closed price was $432,500 last month, while active homes were typically listed at $449,250 and new listings at $460,000. That spread is a reminder to stay grounded in what homes actually closed for.
Looking at current activity, 118 new listings came on last month, and there were 242 active homes at month end with 54 sales during the month. Some metrics were not reported for this period. Even so, the reported numbers give a clear enough framework for decision-making.
My recommendation is simple. Decide now whether your next move depends more on timing, price certainty, or selection. Then act in that order. In Richardson, TX, the market gives prepared people options, but it does not reward drifting without a plan.
