A calmer way to decide when to move

If you're looking at a home in Lake Elsinore, CA, the real question is whether you have time to think or need to act quickly. Last month, the typical sale took 26 days. That is quick enough that I would not treat a strong home like it will sit around.
A typical sale took 26 days last month, and the typical sale price came in at $614,000. I see that as a signal to stay ready before you tour, because the better homes may not stay available long enough for a slow decision. For a buyer, the safest move is to line up financing, narrow the target, and know your ceiling before you step into the first showing. That keeps you from reacting under pressure when a home feels close to right. Watch the 26-day pace closely. Be decisive when a home fits your range. Compare asking price against the recent $614,000 sale level. Move with a plan, not a guess.
