Is Fall/Winter a good time to sell?Is Fall/Winter a good time to sell?
Have you been outside doing Fall clean up? The weather has been wonderful – 60’s and bright blue sky. Have your needs changed? Do you need a smaller house, or a larger house? Maybe you have always wanted to build your dream home. Now is a great time to sell!
- You have fewer competitors. Many homes that were on the market have either sold, or have taken it off and wait till next Spring. You might think Spring is a good time, however since there is such a bombardment on the market, its hard for your home to stand out.
- Serious buyers. Many buyers right now are preapproved and or have cash in hand.
- Fewer homes on the market means you have the upper hand. When buyers are looking and there are few homes on the market, there just isn’t much of a choice for them. Generally you will get closer to your asking price.
- Interest rates are low. The 30 year fixed conventional rate is hovering around 3.75 %.
- Curb Appeal. Fall and Winter make it a great time to decorate. Just don’t go hog wild with the Christmas lights.
