They are still outnumbered by sellers (which is why price drops are still more common than they were during the pandemic homebuying frenzy), but slightly less so than before, which is shifting the balance of power.<\/p>\n<p>\nAt the same time, inventory is growing slower than last year in some markets. There are still more homes for sale in most places, but the surge in listings that gave buyers maximum negotiating power last year has cooled. With competition among sellers easing a bit, fewer sellers feel pressure to slash prices to attract offers.<\/p>\n<p>\nFinally, more home sellers are pricing their homes realistically from the start, adjusting their expectations after a few years of slow homebuying demand. When homes are priced more in line with the market from the moment of listing, a seller is less likely to resort to a price drop.<\/p>\n<p>\nHome sellers can use tools like <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.redfin.com%2Fearly-access&amp;esheet=54538121&amp;newsitemid=20260519148482&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Redfin+Early+Access&amp;index=5&amp;md5=e1f675d712b2ff32835a703c2f5e28a4\">Redfin Early Access<\/a>, in which sellers can test the market via a \u201ccoming soon\u201d listing, to determine the right asking price and lower the risk of a price drop.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cEarlier this year and throughout much of last year, homes were lingering on the market and price drops were fairly common as sellers worked to attract buyers.

At the same time, buyer demand has picked up significantly across nearly all price points. In recent weeks, I\u2019ve seen bidding wars on homes at all price points.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nHome sellers who dropped their asking price in April cut it by an average of 4%. That average percent discount has been fairly steady over the last two years.<\/p>\n<p><b>Philadelphia Saw Biggest Decline in Price Cuts Last Month<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nPrice drops are becoming less common in most major U.S. metros. In Philadelphia, 30.3% of home sellers dropped their price in April, down from 33.7% a month earlier. That\u2019s the biggest month-over-month decline of the metros Redfin analyzed, on a seasonally adjusted basis. Redfin analyzed the 50 most populous metros and included in this analysis the 48 with sufficient data.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe next-biggest decline was in Jacksonville, FL, where 44.9% of sellers cut their prices, down from 47.7% a month earlier. It\u2019s followed by Montgomery County, PA (21.6%, down from 24.3%).<\/p>\n<p><b>Phoenix Saw Biggest Uptick in Price Cuts<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nThe share of home sellers cutting their prices <i>increased <\/i>month over month on a seasonally adjusted basis in 21 of the metros Redfin analyzed.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe share rose most in Phoenix, to 50.8% in April from 48.1% a month earlier. The second-biggest increase was in Seattle (29.5%, up from 27.6%), followed by Orlando, FL (47.8%, up from 46.3%).<\/p>\n<p><b>San Francisco Sellers Least Likely to Cut Prices As AI Fuels Housing Market<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nIn San Francisco, just 13.9% of home sellers cut their asking price in April, the smallest share of the metros Redfin analyzed.

San Jose, CA (16.9%), Chicago (19.8%) and Providence, RI (19.9%) were next.
