June Market Update: Why Now Is the Time to Move in Birmingham

Summer is officially here, and so is one of the busiest and most strategic times to buy or sell a home in Birmingham, Alabama. Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer, a seasoned seller, or considering an investment property, June offers ideal conditions—and I’m here to walk you through why.

As a RealTrends Verified Top Agent in Alabama for both sales volume and transaction sides, I’ve seen firsthand how timing can make or break a deal. Here’s why June is the month to make your move.

1. Inventory Is Peaking, but Demand Remains High

We’re seeing more listings hit the market, which gives buyers more options—but sellers still hold an edge due to high demand. If you’re thinking of selling, now is the time to list while buyer interest is at its peak. If you’re buying, more inventory means less competition and more negotiating power than we saw in early spring.

2. School Calendars Are Driving the Market

Families are moving now to get settled before school resumes in August. If you’re buying or selling in Hoover, Vestavia Hills, Homewood, or Mountain Brook, aligning with the academic calendar can drive faster offers and stronger negotiations.

3. Interest Rates Are Still Competitive—For Now

While interest rates have risen since historic lows, they remain competitive. Lenders are rolling out summer incentives, and savvy buyers are locking in rates before potential increases later in the year. Let’s connect with my trusted mortgage partners to see what’s available.

4. Curb Appeal and Weather Work in Your Favor

Homes shine in summer—literally. With green lawns, fresh landscaping, and longer daylight hours for showings, buyers are more likely to fall in love at first sight. For sellers, this means higher perceived value and faster contracts.

5. Local Expertise Makes All the Difference

I’m honored to be named a RealTrends Verified Top Agent in Alabama for 2024, ranking in the top 1% statewide. That recognition isn’t just a title—it means I’m trusted, experienced, and equipped with the systems to help you maximize your move.
