What’s your favorite part of Mancos Days? The parade, horseshoe games, baseball games, kiddie parade, or live music? If you have been around Mancos for a while, one of the best parts is connecting with friends. My favorite part is meandering around downtown, and finding your spot in the shade for the parade and then heading to the park for fresh squeezed lemonade, Teriyaki kabobs, and browsing the vendors. High school reunions are going on as well as the Queen’s tea; don’t miss Jack and Jeanne Smith’s BBQ to honor Jeanne as the 2022 Mancos Day Queen! Click here for more info on Mancos Days!
4 signs that now is the right time to sell your home4 signs that now is the right time to sell your home
Have you been thinking of selling? Here are 4 signs that now is the right time.
- You can afford to move. Sure, when you sell your home, you will have money but do you have the money now to help you get top dollar for your home? Tips to making your home look it’s best:
- Paint is the #1 investment. Buyers love the clean look.
- Curb appeal- Need to do some minor repairs?
- Kitchen and Bathrooms- upgrade faucets and fixtures.
- Declutter
- Your current home doesn’t fit your lifestyle. Do you need more space or is it time to downsize? Do you like your neighborhood? Have you been daydreaming of building or been looking at other homes?
- How’s the market? Do you know if there are buyers looking for your type of home? How long will your home be on the market till it sells? Did your neighbor’s home sell quickly?
- How much is your house worth? Do you have enough equity in your home that once you sell, you can buy another?
Selling your home is a big decision. Want to know what your home is worth? Call me for a free market analysis. I also have a seller’s guide to help make the transition smoother. One thing I offer my clients is that I will help you get your place ready to sell by orchestrating handymen, cleaners and even provide the trailer. I look forward to helping you.
Happy Solstice!Happy Solstice!
What a glorious morning sunrise! Yesterday and today it’s a bluebird day with it being around 43 degrees. On Thursday we will be getting about 8 inches of snow for Christmas! Homes are still flying off the market! If you are looking to sell, now is the time! Interest rates are low for buyers, and I’ve got plenty who are looking for new homes!
Christmas Season is in full swing!Christmas Season is in full swing!
Last weekend in Mancos was the Rudolph Run and then Saturday in Cortez was the Parade of Lights. Everyone is happy with snow expected tonight! 8 inches! Been super dry so we need it. Shops are staying open longer and it is definitely the season to shop local. The Chamber Christmas Party will be next Thursday the 16th at 5 to 7pm at Mancos Brewery. Hope you will come as we will announce Citizen of the Year for Mancos, Business of the Year, and Cowboy of the Year. We will be having live music, food and dancing!
Multiple Offers Oh My!!Multiple Offers Oh My!!
Homes are flying off the market! Multiple offers and above asking price are the norms on the majority of homes being sold. If you are a buyer, be pre approved with letter in hand. If buying with cash, have a proof of funds letter.
If you are a seller, your place is probably worth more than you think! Give me a call I’m here to help!
Looking at 2020Looking at 2020
The real estate market has had its ups and downs in 2020. When COVID hit in March, the market came to a standstill. But that changed in the summer—and buyers are out in full force, driving major increases in both home sales and home prices, even during the winter.
According to data from the National Association of REALTORS®, in October, existing home sales were up nearly 27 percent from October 2019. And the median existing home sale price in October was $313,000. That’s up from $271,100 in October 2019—an increase of nearly 16 percent!
With more families homeschooling and working from home, why not live somewhere you love!
COVID-19 vaccines, stock market soaring and with mortgage rates hovering around 3%, this real estate growth will continue.
The Takeaway:
So, what does that mean for you? Buyer demand is extremely high, which is driving up sales, competition, and prices—so if you’ve been thinking about selling your home give me a call.
