Home sellers are starting to lower their asking prices in response to a tilt toward a buyer’s market, according to a new report from Redfin.

The median U.S. asking price was $407,000 during the four weeks ending July 13, up 2.9 percent year-over-year, the smallest increase in over four months.

The median asking price is just slightly higher than the median home-sale price of $401,120; the small size of that gap is a sign that sellers are starting to price their homes lower as they realize it’s a buyer’s market, according to Redfin. The median sale price is up 1.7 percent year-over-year; given that the average U.S. wage has increased by more than 4 percent, homes are more affordable than they were last year.

The housing market has been tilting in buyers’ favor for months, with buyers getting concessions from sellers and often successfully negotiating sale prices down. The slowdown in asking-price growth, along with the shrinking gap between the prices sellers want for their homes and the prices buyers are willing to pay, is a sign that sellers are coming to terms with the reality of today’s buyer’s market, according to Redfin.

Another sign that homeowners have caught on to today’s market conditions: Listings are losing steam. New listings are down nearly 1 percent year-over-year, the biggest decline since the start of the year. There are hundreds of thousands more home sellers than buyers. The total number of homes for sale is up 12 percent, while pending sales are down 2 percent.

Sale prices are still at a record high, but they may decline soon; Redfin forecasts that the median U.S. home-sale price will fall 1 percent year-over-year by the end of 2025. And homebuyers’ median monthly housing payment is coming down, dropping to a four-month low this week as the weekly average mortgage rate sits near its lowest level since early spring.

The combination of a buyer’s market and falling monthly payments is encouraging some buyers to return to the market, according to Redfin. Home tours are rising much faster this year than the same period last year, and Google searches of “homes for sale” are at their highest level in over a year.

“Buyers should look at a lot of homes and make a lot of offers — even if they’re low or below market value — as more and more sellers are willing to make a deal,” Tampa, Fla., Redfin Premier agent Jim Fletcher said in a release. “There’s a backlog of inventory, especially when it comes to condos, townhouses and newly built homes. Builders are giving all sorts of incentives, like mortgage-rate buydowns and covering closing costs, to get homes off their books. The one exception: desirable, move-in ready homes in the center of town where there aren’t as many new construction homes to compete with. Buyers will usually pick those up relatively quickly if they’re priced right.”
