Bay City pricing remains relatively steady, while homes are taking a measured amount of time to move through the market. With supply still favoring buyers, accurate pricing and strong positioning remain important for sellers.

For buyers, the current environment continues to offer negotiating room and a broad range of choices, while well-priced homes can still stand out and attract attention.
