Here is the constraint I plan around based on the previous 30 days 114 new listings hit the market last month, and 93 listings went pending last month.
This changes your plan because a strong pipeline of new listings does not automatically equal easy buying if nearly as many are being absorbed into pending status. Some metrics were not reported for this period. What is clear is that North Raleigh, NC had meaningful new supply 114 while demand also pulled 93 into contract, which argues for a calendar-driven plan rather than casual browsing.
Block time for decisive touring in the first half of your search window, not the last week. I recommend you set alerts and tour quickly when a home matches your criteria, because 93 properties moved into pending status last month. If you are selling and buying, line up your listing prep so you can act on a good replacement home without hesitation, since new listings are entering but are still being absorbed.
