Introduction

The typical advice investors are given is that the fall-winter season is a great time to buy real estate. The narrative goes like this: 

• 
  
• Families are done house hunting for the season because they don’t want to disrupt the school year.
• 
  
• The homes that didn’t sell during peak season are likely to be discounted by increasingly nervous sellers. 
• 
  
• Shrewd investors can get great deals on real estate. 
• 
  

Does this seasonal pattern really still apply to the current housing market? 

If we dig a little deeper into what’s really going on with the post-pandemic real estate market, we’ll see that things have changed. Autumn and winter 2023 will look different for investors for a number of reasons, and this change is likely to be long-lasting.
