However, the housing market has done a complete 180 since that point, and sellers are having to be more malleable these days. Case in point: Home sellers gave buyers concessions in 45.5% of home sales during the three months ending on February 28, according to a new <strong>Redfin<\/strong> report. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s an increase of over 31% compared to the same period in 2022 \u2014 and is also the highest share of concessions during any three-month period in the brokerage\u2019s records, which date back to June 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the report, Redfin considered a concession to be anything the seller provided to help reduce the buyer&#8217;s total cost of purchasing the home outside of a lower sales price. In this case, concessions include the cost of repairs, money toward closing and mortgage-rate buydowns, among other things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAny home with a roof that\u2019s over eight years old is just sitting\u2014 buyers don\u2019t want to put any additional funds into repairs,\u201d said Elena Fleck, a Redfin real estate agent based in Palm Beach, Florida. \u201cI had a few sellers offer credits for new roofs to close the deal.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Redfin also found that a large percentage of sellers are slashing their asking prices or accepting offers below the asking price. Nearly a quarter of home sales (25.2%) included both a concession and a final sale price below the list price during the three months ending on February 28.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBuyers today are way more demanding and selective. They\u2019re willing to wait to find the perfect house, which wasn\u2019t the case during the pandemic homebuying boom,\u201d Fleck said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>High mortgage rates and home prices have caused many buyers to pause their home buying plans, and, in turn, this trend has become increasingly common to help seal the deal with buyers. When the mortgage rate was hovering near 3%, the higher demand for homes tempered expectations for concessions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the report, pandemic boomtowns and coastal markets have seen the biggest increases in seller concessions recently due to rising interest rates and high home prices, which led to these markets to cool down \u201crelatively quickly.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seattle saw the biggest increase in seller concessions for the three months ending February 28. Sellers in Seattle gave concessions to buyers in more than half (51.6%) of all home sales during that period, up from 20.1% one year prior. Las Vegas, Denver, San Diego and Phoenix have also seen significant increases in seller concessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, New York saw the lowest share of seller concessions during the same period, with just 16.7% of sellers giving concessions to buyers during that time. The rates of sellers offering concessions were also low during that time in San Jose, Boston, Philadelphia and Austin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>High mortgage rates and home
