So sellers have an advantage. Also, more sellers are adjusting their expectations and pricing their homes more realistically to fit the market, so it\u2019s less likely they will need to drop the price. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The market that Redfin defines as Philadelphia and Delaware Counties had the biggest seasonally adjusted decrease in price cuts from March to April. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Roughly 30% of the region\u2019s home sellers cut their asking prices last month, down from about 34% in March. Sellers cut their prices by an average of about 5%.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>In the market that Redfin defines as Montgomery, Bucks, and Chester Counties, about 22% of sellers cut their prices in April. In comparison, across the 50 largest metros, about 35% of home sellers cut their prices last month.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>But the share of sellers who cut their prices increased in 21 metro areas.
