Multiple offers and sale prices over list for many hot properties. Some neighborhoods may have longer days on the market. In some areas, we are seeing more price reductions and the return of the "expired" listing. Generally, it is still active.

School starts the middle of August so historically the market starts tailing off naturally becuase people want to be the house early before the term starts, but this is not a softening, just normal.

Ginger Harper - I see many more price changes than earlier this year. Though that may be because of the list price higher than what it should have been in the first place.

It' a little quieter right now but my sense is that is because it's the lull we often see in July and August before the kids go back to school and summer vacations are over. It's still pretty active, just less o than a couple of months ago. One cannot be a slacker if you are looking!
