Feeling unsure about selling your house because you're concerned that buyers aren’t active with current rates and prices? Here’s a bit of insight that might help ease your mind.

The market isn't really at a standstill. Sure, we saw fewer sales last year compared to a typical market, but about 4.15 million homes still changed hands, not counting new constructions, according to the National Association of Realtors (NAR). It's anticipated that this number will go up in 2025. This indicates more people are likely to be moving this year, and they will need homes to buy—homes like yours.

Even if we just keep up with last year's sales speed, here's what we can expect.

• With 4.15 million homes sold each year, that works out to around 11,370 homes being sold every single day!

• If 11,370 homes are sold each day, that breaks down to about 474 homes being sold every hour!

• With 474 homes sold each hour, that comes out to roughly 8 homes being sold every minute!
