The 2025 Seller Surge: What’s Fueling the Optimism?

The 2025 housing market is heating up, and sellers are feeling
confident. In this episode, we take a deep dive into the latest
Realtor.com Sellers Survey to understand why 81% of homeowners
believe they’ll get their asking price—or more—and what that
means for the Connecticut market. We explore the top reasons
people are selling, from lifestyle changes to financial pressure,
and discuss how many are preparing their homes through
renovations, inspections, and agent consultations. We also cover
the "mortgage rate lock-in effect," which is preventing some
sellers from making a move, and highlight how Baby Boomers are
dominating both the selling and buying sides of the market. Plus,
we look at how low inventory in parts of Connecticut gives
sellers a strategic advantage—and where the opportunities lie for
those ready to act. If you're a homeowner, seller, or real estate
watcher, this episode will help you understand how to navigate
today’s conditions—and when to make your move.
