Time to sell?

Our office recently listed 18 homes for an investor group that bought the homes during the depth of the recession at bargain prices with a strategy to hold the properties until prices rose to a profitable level.  Now that home price appreciation is beginning to slow the investor decided to sell.  More of this investor's properties will hit the market in the next few months.

Maybe there's a lesson here for homeowners who are thinking of downsizing, simplifying, or moving closer to family. Timing is the key if you want to get the most for your home.

It is a seller's market

Dan and Paulette work as a team, helping clients with their real estate needs.  Their many years combined experience mean you will save time and money as you sell your current home and buy your next home. 

The current market favors sellers with market demand high for the scarce number of homes for sale.  That means that homes are selling quickly, often for more money that others sold recently in the neighborhood.  And it also means that buyers are facing stiff competition from other buyers.  Full price and over asking price offers are common.   Cash buyers are often beating those needing financing.  These conditions are often frustrating to first time and move up buyers.  But it doesn't have to be when you have the advantage of working with a team that understands the market, knows how to make your offer strong and is effective at negotiating with the listing agent so that your offer is the winning bid.

So whether you are buying or selling, take a few minutes to think about your goals.  Then pick up the phone and call so that we can help you get started.
