How does the 2026 market affect the as-is decision?

Selling as-is means the seller isn't committing to make repairs a buyer's inspection turns up, and whether buyers accept that in 2026 depends on how much competition exists for that specific home, not the calendar year itself. In a market with more competing, move-in-ready listings, an as-is home may need a price adjustment to stay attractive. In a tighter market with fewer options, buyers are often more willing to accept as-is terms. Joel Boss can gauge which situation applies to a specific listing.
