I know it sounds crazy but every year we see the same thing...people selling their homes more quickly at this time of year and for good prices compared with later in the year.
So why is this? In my opinion, there may be several reasons that can explain this scenario. You would think that with storms and freezing temperatures at this time of year, most of us would prefer to hunker down beside a warm fire and read a book or stream a movie. But when it comes to serious home buyers, the days and weeks after New Year's day mark the beginning of their home shopathon!
These buyers have waited for the holidays to pass and are looking at their TO-DO list. Buying their next home is a priority and they are keen to making it happen. So if they come across a good property that is fairly priced, they tend to snap it up now rather than wait till later in the spring when there might be a bigger inventory to choose from, but not guaranteed this same type of home will be available.
So if you are thinking about selling your home and listing it for sale in the spring...think again! There are buyers out there now who may find your home is exactly what they are prepared to buy, NOW!
Call the Vani Team if you would like to discuss how we sold a third of all the MLS-listed homes in the Gladeview complex in 2015! We would love to help you too!
