Today's Real Estate Market is currently be controlled by the interest rates. When the interest rates rise the housing market sales slowdown and when they drop home sales increase. Currently the smaller less expensive homes are selling quicker than the larger homes. Also, the homes that are move in ready and updated are selling very quickly compared to the homes that need work done or updating.
You can setup a housing market update for you home here to see what the housing market is doing in your neighborhood. You can see how long it’s taking homes to sell and what condition they are in as well as what the home sold for. Your Neighborhood Housing Market Update I would be happy to help you set that up as well. It only takes a couple minutes.
If you are thinking about selling also remember that there are certain times of the year that could fetch more money for you, but it does depend on the housing market conditions. The best time to sell your home is between March 1st and June 1st. Back in the day this time frame was a little longer however because the school’s schedules have changed, and children start school now in early August instead of September parents want to be in their new home before the children start school.
Please also remember that not all Realtor’s are equal. There are good and bad Real Estate Agents just as there are bad teachers, accountants and doctors. There are somethings that you can do ahead of time along with some questions you can ask them. Many agents don’t answer their phone and will take hours to call you back. This is their job and that shouldn’t happen unless there are curtain circumstances. Good agents will answer their phone and if not call you back within a few minutes. Communication in very important during a transaction.
If you are thinking about selling there are many things to think about, what are the market conditions, what condition is my property in, our location and what time of year are you selling. Each of these things can play a factor in how long it will take for your home to sell and what price you get. I offer my clients 3 tiers of service and each may or may not be right for your situation. I offer 3 different packages to sellers, a gold package, silver package and a platinum package each with varying amounts of service and marketing depending on your need to get top dollar. This would be 100% your choice unless I feel it would not be best for you in which case, I would wish you the best and move on. Most Realtor’s just put the home on the MLS and wait but NOT ME. I have that option but will also target market to reach as many home buyers for your property as possible. Please remember the market conditions and the buyer sets the price for you home not you!
For my home buyers I offer a "Home Buyers Rebate" which is worth from $1,000 to $3,000 credited to you at closing. How it works is if you buy a home worth $400,000 or more you receive a rebate of $3,000 at close of escrow. If you buy a home at or over $150,000 but under $399,999 than you receive $1,000 rebate. Again it’s free money that helps keep your hard earned money where it belongs, your bank account. Please feel free to ask for more details about this Home Buyers Rebate I offer.
**IMPORTANT** Please know that we have an absolutely no pressure policy, so there is zero pressure, no hassle and no obligation!
