In the suburban Washington, D.C., market, the number of contracts for single-family homes fell 8.9% in July from the year before. Brokers who used to oversee bidding wars of houses that hadn’t had a makeover in decades are now pushing sellers to fix up their places to sell faster.lend credence to my belief that the market is shifting a bit, and not only due to the cyclical nature of the market (due in large part to the school calendar).
