When I am looking for signs of demand, I want to know whether homes are getting traction. Last month, 261 homes went under contract, and that is enough to tell me buyers are still moving when the right property shows up.

When I am looking for signs of demand, I want to know whether homes are getting traction. Last month, 261 homes went under contract, and that is enough to tell me buyers are still moving when the right property shows up.
Last month, 261 homes went under contract. That tells me demand is real enough to support careful pricing, but not so loose that every home gets immediate attention without effort. For sellers in McKinney, TX, I would read that as a reminder that presentation and first-week strategy still matter. If the goal is a clean path to contract, I would not treat demand as automatic. Lead with a strong first week. Watch early showing activity closely. Adjust quickly if your home is not getting the attention you expected.
