🐝MJ Weekly Poll

🐝MJ Real Estate Update

All week I’ve been getting the same question: "Are you seeing more activity in the market?" The short answer is yes. Over the past two weeks, I’ve noticed a lot of movement, with multiple listings that sat over the summer now seeing a steady stream of showings. There’s definitely a shift happening, and with last week’s announcement about the Fed rate cut, I expect even more buyers to enter the market.

Here in Mt. Juliet, we’re still facing limited inventory, so it’ll be interesting to see how the increased buyer activity impacts demand going forward.

If you have any questions about the real estate market here in Mt. Juliet or anywhere else in Middle TN, feel free to reach out. I'd love the opportunity to earn your business!
