For Buyers, Sellers & Savvy Investors in Greater Boston + Southern NH
Hey friends—it’s the tickety tail end of March, the lion is still roaring, and I’ve got your latest UPSIDE/DOWNSIDE Real Estate Report ready to roll. This is where I break down what’s really happening in our local real estate market—without the fluff.
Whether you’re looking to buy, sell, or invest in real estate in Massachusetts or New Hampshire, this month’s insight is all about timing, strategy, and opportunity.
📈 The Upside for Buyers
What’s Working for You Right Now
Inventory is slowly increasing, and more options are becoming available—especially in new construction and move-up price points.
If you’ve been feeling stuck in a too-small home or are craving that next-level lifestyle, now is a great time to leverage the equity in your current home and make a smart upgrade.
And remember, when you work with me, I’m bringing off-market opportunities, strong local builder relationships, and serious negotiating power to the table. Inside the Buyer Mastery Program®, we focus on strategy, confidence, and clarity—not chaos.
📉 The Downside for Buyers
If you’re still sitting on the sidelines—hoping home prices will come down or interest rates will fall below 6.5%—you’re likely setting yourself up for disappointment.
Here’s the truth: Home prices are not going down.
They’re continuing to appreciate due to historically low inventory. And most forecasts show interest rates remaining steady—possibly even ticking up.
The real kicker? Many buyers haven’t even taken the first step. You haven’t spoken to a lender. You don’t have a plan. And you’re missing out on opportunities because you’re not surrounded by a team that can help you explore creative financing options to make your move possible.
That’s exactly why I built the Buyer Mastery Program®—to help you stop spinning your wheels and start moving forward. We create a personalized action plan, walk through financing strategies, and help you become offer-ready, fast.
🏡 The Upside for Sellers
Here’s the good news: Buyer demand is climbing.
A recent survey revealed that 15% of buyers plan to purchase in 2025, up from just 11% last year. That means more eyes on your home—and more competition among buyers.
If your house is well-prepped, priced strategically, and marketed by a pro (hi, that’s me!), it will absolutely shine in this spring market.
With my Seller Mastery Program®, I take the guesswork out of getting ready to sell. From staging and prep to high-converting digital marketing and strategic pricing, I help you position your home to attract motivated, qualified buyers and secure the strongest offers.
🚨 The Downside for Sellers
Overpricing is still the #1 mistake I’m seeing.
Nationwide, there were over 60,000 price reductions vs. February last year.
That tells me sellers are being too aggressive out the gate and losing traction with buyers. Price drops not only impact your bottom line—they can also hurt your negotiation power and time on market.
Don’t fall into that trap. I offer a complimentary pricing strategy session where we break down your local market trends and create a tailored approach to sell smart, not desperate.
💡 Steph’s Insider Tip
“Waiting doesn’t build equity. Strategy does.”
Trying to time the market is like trying to predict the weather on your wedding day—there’s always risk. But with the right plan, we can win in any market.
