💬 Professional Insight & Actionable Advice


🔹 For Buyers:

Now is a strategic window—more inventory means less competition and more room to negotiate. If you've been waiting for a buyer-friendly market, this is it. However, don’t expect steep discounts in every segment—focus on motivated sellers and properties that have been sitting.

🔹 For Sellers:

It’s not just about listing—it’s about positioning. In a high-supply market, homes that are priced right and show well still attract serious buyers. Pay attention to recent comparables and don’t rely on outdated peak pricing.

💬 專業觀點 & 實用建議

🔹 給買家:

現在是一個策略性入市的好時機──庫存多代表競爭少、談判空間大。如果你一直在等買家友善的市場,現在就是。但並非每個類型的物業都有明顯議價空間,建議關注動機明確、上市時間較長的房源。

🔹 給賣家:

「放盤」不等於「賣出」——「定位」才是關鍵。在供應充足的市場中,定價合理、展示得宜的房屋依然能吸引認真買家。參考最新的類似成交案例,避免依賴過去的高峰價作為定價依據。
