    The first list to sales graph you see on Redfin is a rough guide. You need to click on it zero in on specifics, and then you’ll be really confused. Best to look at list to sales, and original list price. Then add in DOM (days on market), number of price reductions, and you start to build a picture of how distressed a property is. In a perfect world the list to sales ratio could be your guide to making an offer.

    Best time to buy is when you can afford it.

    The best time to buy is when the asking price is lower than the Zestimate.

    The best time to buy is when you find a home that you really love and can afford it. The best time to buy varies from person to person.

    All to often, people determine the best time to buy as measured by the overall market conditions which is incorrect. So most people incorrectly apply what we all learned in basic chemistry:

    Best time to buy = Bottom of the market

    Wrong.

    The market may be at a bottom while you may not be making as much income as you need. Conversely you may have a pile of cash but the market is not at the bottom.

    Furthermore trying to identify the bottom of the market is hard. Many many people whiffed on that call who regularly post here. Odds are that we have more downhill sledding ahead of us.
