The Fall Market Window Is Coming: 4 Trends to Watch | Tom's Take 492

Peak pending season may be over, but there is still plenty of opportunity left in the 2026 housing market. In this episode of Tom’s Take, Tom Toole breaks down the four trends shaping the rest of the year in Greater Philadelphia, including tight inventory, stable mortgage rates, pricing that is leveling off, and a second window of opportunity for buyers heading into the fall. Tom explains why buyers should be prepared for multiple-offer situations in low-inventory markets, why sellers should watch showing activity and offers closely, and why August is the right time to start planning before the fall market picks up. If you are thinking about buying or selling on the Main Line, in Chester County, Delaware County, or the surrounding Philadelphia suburbs, now is the time to get clear on your goals and put a plan in place.
