ABOUT JAY

FRIEDMAN

I am a California native, born in Southern California, but raised in Roseville, CA where I graduated from Oakmont High School. In 1995, I moved to Reno, NV to attend the University of Nevada and prior to graduation, in 1998, my wife and I got married. I graduated in 1999 having earned a BSBA with a focus on Logistics Management. After graduation, my wife and I moved to Southern California for work where I was the Sales Manager for a national media company named Source Interlink (“Primedia” back then). At Primedia, I was the Sales Manager for "Import Tuner" magazine, and a salesman for many different national automotive enthusiast publications.  In 2003, my wife and I decided it was time to improve our quality of life. We moved back to Roseville to be near our families, and to start our own family. My biggest passions, next to my family and friends, are working with my great clients, traveling, playing with cars, and just plain enjoying this great gift called Life!

Even with more homes on the market right now, some buyers are still having a tough time finding the right one at the right price . Maybe the layout feels off. Maybe it still needs some updating. Or maybe it’s just more of the same. That’s why more buyers are turning to new construction – and finding some of the best deals available today. Why? Today, many builders have more homes that are finished and sitting on the market than normal. And that means they’re motivated to sell. They’re running a business, and they don’t want to sit on their inventory. They want to sell it before they build more homes. And that can definitely work in your favor. As Lance Lambert, Co-Founder of ResiClub , puts it : “In housing markets where unsold completed inventory has built up, many homebuilders have pulled back on their spec builds— and many are doing bigger incentives or outright price cuts to move unsold inventory .” Incentives Are the Highest They’ve Been in 5 Years Data from the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) shows 66% of builders offered sales incentives in August . That’s the peak so far this year, and the highest percentage we’ve seen in 5 years.

If your selling strategy still assumes you’ll get multiple offers over asking, it’s officially time for a reset. That frenzied seller’s market is behind us. And here are the numbers to prove it. From Frenzy to “Normal” Right now, about 50% of homes on the market are selling for less than their asking price, according to the latest data from Cotality . But that isn’t necessarily bad news, even if it feels like it. Here’s why. The wild run-up over the last few years was never going to be sustainable. The housing market needed a reset, and data shows that’s exactly what’s happening right now. The graph below uses data from Zillow to show how this trend has shifted over time. Here’s what it tells us: 2018–2019: 50–55% of homes sold under asking. That was the norm. 2021–2022: Only 25% sold under asking, thanks to record-low rates and intense buyer demand. 2025: 50% of homes are selling below asking. That’s much closer to what’s typical in the housing market.

You may have seen talk online that new home inventory is at its highest level since the crash. And if you lived through the crash back in 2008, seeing new construction is up again may feel a little scary. But here’s what you need to remember: a lot of what you see online is designed to get clicks. So, you may not be getting the full story. A closer look at the data and a little expert insight can change your perspective completely. Why This Isn’t Like 2008 While it’s true the number of new homes on the market hit its highest level since the crash, that’s not a reason to worry. That’s because new builds are just one piece of the puzzle. They don’t tell the full story of what’s happening today. To get the real picture of how much inventory we have and how it compares to the surplus we saw back then, you’ve got to look at both new homes and existing homes (homes that were lived in by a previous owner). When you combine those two numbers , it’s clear overall supply looks very different today than it did around the crash ( see graph below ):

TESTIMONIALS

I haven't sold or bought a home in over 35 years, I had no idea who to talk to about selling my home. Jay was recommended to me by Shelby Elias. Right away I saw that Jay was our man and he never did disappoint.  In fact he went far above and beyond what I was expecting and my expectations were high. I would recommend Jay and his team to anyone needing a realtor. Thank you Jay, you made a stressful time seem effortless.

Jay is so knowledgeable and responsive!  He is personable and has a great team work with him. I would highly recommend Jay to guide me through another real estate transaction.

Jay did an outstanding job with helping us buy and sell our home. In a tough sellers market, he was able to make our offer competitive and ultimately allow our family to be close together. He also went out of his way to coordinate a full remodel of our prior home, which was even located outside his service area! This was the main reason we were able to sell our home for 130k over asking price. Jay definitely goes above and beyond for his clients. One his best qualities is that he is extremely responsive and always picks up the phone or texts back.  We would absolutely recommend him for all your real estate needs!
