The Northern Nevada real estate market and the rest of the country have experienced record prices and bidding wars since the start of the pandemic. But some experts believe the industry is softening or that the ‘crazy’ is just leaving the housing market.

The growth rate of prices and buyer demand are slowing down, and the market is showing signs of returning to a more typical seller’s market. And although we can’t predict the future, there are three key fundamental differences between the current market and the 2008 Great Recession, which is why we’re doubtful to see another crash.
