I am seeing a small percentage of local buyers who prefer <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/blog\/touring-homes-during-coronavirus-pandemic\/\" data-wpel-link=\"exclude\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">live video chat tours<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> but a higher percentage of remote buyers coming to the Cleveland real estate market, who are taking advantage of the live video chat tours.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Has competition declined?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cNot at all. Like many markets when COVD-19 hit, particularly when our stay at home order was put into place, we saw a big drop off in both supply and demand. From my perspective, that equilibrium has shifted. Buyer demand has been increasing, but new seller supply has remained weak.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How competitive are the offers on current homes listed for sale?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOffers on current homes listed for sale are very competitive. It doesn\u2019t feel much different than last fall before the pandemic hit. Homes that are properly priced and in desirable neighborhoods are still selling quickly, often with multiple offers. It is common in Cleveland real estate that a customer will schedule a tour 2-3 days out on a new listing, but now it\u2019s already under contract before we have a chance to tour. Due to the competitive nature of the market, buyers that are ready to buy would be best served touring homes within the first 48 hours of the home being listed on the market.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What protections should homebuyers put in their contract?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOutside of the standard financing and home inspection contingencies, a disruption of services addendum is essential in this environment. It protects both the buyer and seller in these uncertain times. For sellers looking to upgrade from their current home, I would suggest having plans A, B, and C in place. Inventory is low and competition is high. So if you\u2019re selling, customers need to know they have a new home to live in. If their current home sells quickly, and they don\u2019t have a plan in place, they may be put in a difficult situation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many sellers need to sell their home before they buy so that they can use the equity from their current home for the downpayment on the next. There are some financing options that could be put into place to work around this. Some home sellers have no interest in the uncertainty of selling their home before having a home to move into, so they choose to buy first.\u00a0 In this situation, you need to make sure you have your financial affairs in order and prepare for a worst-case scenario should their current property not sell in a timely manner, or for the price they anticipate.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are there a larger number of offers falling through?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMore offers are falling through, mainly based on the level of competition and homes receiving multiple offers. Homebuyers who put an offer on the home may not get it, causing their offer to fall through because the seller chose to go with a different offer. I have not yet seen any offers fall through due directly to COVID-19.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are closings being postponed due to stay-at-home orders?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cClosings are not being postponed due to stay at home orders. Title companies have put social distancing practices and precautions into place in order to protect consumers. They are getting creative in the ways they do their closings and doing things like curbside closings, allowing the deal to go through on time.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are homes receiving fewer offers?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/4145\/OH\/Cleveland\" data-wpel-link=\"exclude\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Homes in Cleveland<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are not receiving fewer offers. I still see multiple offers on homes for sale quite frequently. The buyers that are currently looking to buy Cleveland real estate are aggressive and motivated. They are ready to buy and put an offer on a home as soon as they tour and decide they want to move forward with an offer.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In your opinion, is the current market in favor of buyers or sellers?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt is clearly a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/blog\/buying-in-a-sellers-market\/\" data-wpel-link=\"exclude\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">seller\u2019s market<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Based on favorable interest rates and lack of inventory, homes that are listed for sale at the right price and in a favorable neighborhood are very competitive and going under contract very quickly.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-69132 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Joe-Goldian.jpg\" alt=\"Joe Goldian contact information \" width=\"528\" height=\"308\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Joe-Goldian.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Joe-Goldian-300x175.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Joe-Goldian-1024x597.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Joe-Goldian-768x448.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Joe-Goldian-257x150.jpg 257w, https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Joe-Goldian-1080x630.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Joe-Goldian-514x300.jpg 514w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 528px) 100vw, 528px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The US housing market has gone through many changes during this COVID-19 pandemic.
