Karl Rogers, a realtor with Dwell Realty Group, highlighted that January is typically a slow month for real estate, but activity is picking up. “Showings are increasing, inventory is increasing,” said Rogers. He noted that multiple offers are becoming more common, indicating a lively market. Rogers emphasized that The Med City is somewhat insulated from national trends due to its status as an economic hub, largely thanks to the Mayo Clinic. Interest rates, which have been high, are stabilizing after cuts by the feds in late 2025. “Interest rates aren’t necessarily going to be the main issue now,” said Rogers, pointing out that rising home prices could be a more pressing concern for buyers. For sellers, Rogers advised pricing homes reasonably due to low inventory. “Price fairly and price the home very reasonably for our market right now,” he said. He also suggested that sellers might price slightly below market to drive competition.For buyers, pre-approval and shopping around for interest rates are crucial steps. Rogers mentioned a 0% down rural development loan as a good option for those struggling with down payments. As the market heats up, both buyers and sellers should be prepared to navigate the competitive real estate landscape.</div></body>
