Richard Haggerty, CEO OneKey MLS stated, “Historically, the number of home sales increases significantly in the springtime, so I am not surprised to see pending sales activity ticking upwards across our region, amid economic uncertainty.”  Indicating that seasonality has always been a reliable predictor of market activity, Haggerty continued, “After more than two years of unprecedented market activity, we are finally seeing a recalibration back to more normal market conditions.”
