Gulf Coast real estate market begins shifting back to pre-pandemic levels
The multiple offer situation became a representation of the pandemic real estate market in America these past few years. And while Alabama's Gulf Coast is normally buffered a bit from those national attention-grabbing headlines, the market here was also undoubtedly tighter than normal.
But good news is on the horizon. The tides of the real estate market both nationally and along Alabama's Gulf Coast are beginning to turn, according to recent market stats. The frenzied pace of the real estate market in the past few years has begun to return to pre-pandemic levels. It's an expected shift in the market that's been long-awaited by home buyers, who are looking for reduced competition and an increase in options, but the news isn't bad for sellers either.

2021 was best tourism year ever for Alabama & the Gulf Coast
It's that time of year. Interstate 10 and any other route heading toward the U.S.S. Alabama Battleship or the beaches are packed with vacationers to our little slice of paradise. The traffic may be bumper to bumper Friday afternoons and wait times at our favorite restaurants may be longer than we'd like, but visitors to Mobile and Baldwin counties provide vital financial support to our area and the entire state.
