As the temperature continues to rise, buyers are coming out ready to purchase their dream home. Here are five reasons that you should list your house for sale now.
- Strong Buyer Demand: The latest surveys show that there are significantly more prospective purchasers this year than ever before! These buyers are willing, able, and willing to purchase. Take advantage of the buyer activity that is currently going on in the market.
- There Is Less Competition Now: There is a pent-up desire for many homeowners to move as they were unable to sell over the last few years because of a negative equity situation. Homeowners are now seeing a return to positive equity as real estate values have increased over the last two years. Many of these homes will be coming to the market in the near future.
- Home Prices Are Skyrocketing: One major factor that is driving up the price of homes, is the lack of inventory for the real estate market. Once a potential buyer makes an offer on a home, they then realize they aren’t the only ones interested in the house.
- There Will Never Be a Better Time To Move-Up: If you are moving up to a larger, more expensive home, consider doing it now.Prices are projected to appreciate by over 19.4% from now to 2019. If you are moving to a higher priced home, it will wind-up costing you more in raw dollars (both in down payment and mortgage payment) if you wait.
- It’s Time To Move On With Your Life: Look at the reason you decided to sell in the first place and determine whether it is worth waiting. Is money more important than being with family? Is money more important than having the freedom to go on with your life the way you think you should?
