Is now the time to list your home? The answer is YES!
Most homeowners typically wait till spring to list their home but here’s some good reasons in the current market to LIST NOW:
1 Supply is LOW
Monthly inventories have now fallen for 29 consecutive months, and due to the diminished supply, PRICES ARE rising. We are seeing the lowest point of supply in over 8 years. Listing now when demand is HIGH and supply is LOW could help you get a better price for your home.
2 Demand is HIGH
Homes are selling at a pace we haven’t seen in over 6 years. More buyers means more opportunities for your home to sell quickly.
3 Interest rates expected to go up
There are projections that interest rates will raise this year. That means a higher housing expense for buyers if they wait to mortgage their home.
4 New Construction Competition
Over the past few years, sellers have not been competing with new builders around the corner. As the market is recovering, more builders are back in the market. Upcoming new homes in the market will mean more competition in the market.
