More homes are coming online, so your pricing and launch need to be deliberate.
If you are wondering whether this is a good moment to come to market, the answer is yes - but only if you show up priced and prepared. In Amityville, NY, 23 homes came on the market over the previous 30 days, and that was a much larger flow of new competition than the month before.
I would pay attention to the lineup you are joining. Last month, new listings in Amityville, NY carried a typical asking price of $649,999, and the number of new listings rose 91.7% from the prior month. Active listings also reached 33 homes, up 50% month over month, so buyers had more fresh options to compare.
That changes how I would position a sale. The typical active listing spent 21 days available recently, while a typical closed sale took 42 days from listing to close, and recent closings landed at 97.24% of asking. To me, that supports a clean launch, realistic pricing, and a strong first two weeks instead of starting high and hoping to fix it later.
Price against the current competition, not your ideal number. Fix the issues buyers will notice in the first showing. In Amityville, NY, I would also make sure your photos, timing, and first-week availability are tight, because more choices on the market give buyers an easy reason to skip anything that feels uncertain.
