2024 Year in Review - Sean Zanganeh Real Estate Team
What a year!
As we close the chapter on 2024 and look ahead to an exciting 2025, we're filled with gratitude for the incredible journey we've shared with our amazing clients, friends, and supporters. From first-time homebuyers getting their keys to families upgrading to their dream homes, you've made this year truly unforgettable.
A Year of Transformation
2024 was unlike any other year in recent real estate history. While the market presented its challenges—from evolving commission structures to shifting buyer behaviors—our team remained focused on what matters most: turning your dreams into addresses.
The Numbers Tell Our Story
This year brought significant changes to our industry, but through it all, we stayed committed to excellence:
- Every deal closed represented a family's new beginning
- Every handshake built lasting relationships
- Every key handed over marked the start of someone's next chapter
Whether you were buying your first home, selling to move closer to family, or simply asking for market advice over coffee, you helped make 2024 a year we'll always remember.
Navigating Market Changes Together
2024 challenged everyone in real estate. Mortgage rates reached new highs during the spring buying season, with home prices rising 4.0% year-over-year through October, making affordability a real concern for many families.
But here's what we learned: great service transcends market conditions. When rates fluctuated and inventory remained tight, our commitment to transparency, education, and personalized guidance became more valuable than ever.
What Made the Difference
- Honest market insights when you needed them most
- Creative solutions to navigate financing challenges
- Transparent communication about new industry regulations
- Unwavering advocacy for your best interests
Every conversation, whether it led to a transaction or simply provided clarity about your options, reinforced why we love what we do.
Your Success Stories Inspired Us
Behind every statistic is a story. While national home sales remained subdued at about 75% of normal activity, our clients found ways to achieve their goals:
- The young couple who thought homeownership was out of reach but found their perfect starter home
- The growing family who upgraded to more space just in time for their new arrival
- The empty nesters who downsized to their ideal retirement community
- The investor who built their portfolio despite market headwinds
Each success reminded us why real estate is about so much more than transactions—it's about life's most important moments.
Looking Forward: 2025 and Beyond
As we step into 2025, we're optimistic about what lies ahead. While experts predict home price appreciation will slow to around 2% in 2025 compared to 4.5% in 2024, this moderation could bring more balance to our local market.
What We're Excited About
Continued Industry Evolution: The transparency initiatives that began in 2024 are creating a better experience for everyone involved in real estate transactions.
Market Balance: With inventory slowly increasing and price growth moderating, we anticipate more opportunities for both buyers and sellers.
Innovation: New tools and technologies are making the home buying and selling process more efficient and transparent than ever.
Your Goals: Most importantly, we're excited to help you achieve whatever 2025 has in store—whether that's buying, selling, investing, or simply staying informed about your most valuable asset.
Our Promise for 2025
As we embark on another year together, our commitment remains unchanged:
- Exceptional service that puts your needs first
- Market expertise to guide you through any conditions
- Transparent communication about every step of the process
- Innovative solutions tailored to your unique situation
- Lasting relationships that extend far beyond closing day
