Understanding Market Cycles in Residential Real Estate
Why timing truly matters and how to read subtle signals behind market patterns.

Thomas Müller
Residential real estate operates in cycles influenced by economic conditions, buyer sentiment, and supply levels. Recognizing these patterns helps both buyers and sellers make more informed decisions.
Periods of high demand often coincide with limited inventory, driving competitive pricing. Conversely, balanced or cooling markets can offer opportunities for negotiation and long-term value.
Rather than reacting to headlines, successful clients focus on data, trends, and individual financial goals. Market timing matters—but strategy matters more.
