Why Now Is an Opportune Time To Sell

Here is why this time of year is a great time to be selling your home.

Many people believe that it’s not a great time of year to be selling a home. That's simply not true. Everyone who sold their homes in August and September will be getting into homes in October and November. More homes come off the market, and fewer homes come on the market, which means there's less competition. If you or someone you know has been thinking about selling their home, this is an opportune time to do it.

If you're thinking about making a move, give us a call. We'll talk about whether or not this is the right time for you to sell and what you can do to maximize the price that you get for your home. We appreciate your referrals and support. If we can help you now or at any time in the future, please reach out to us. We look forward to hearing from you.

Watch for Agents Who Lack Experience

Who you hire as your representation matters now more than ever.

In this crazy real estate market, I see many buyers and sellers struggling to find success. One of the reasons they’re struggling is that they’re dealing with agents who don’t have the experience to help them accomplish their goals. There’s a misconception that the market is so good that it doesn’t matter who you hire. That couldn’t be farther from the truth.

When it comes to negotiating, positioning a property, creating an auction effect on your home, and helping clients buy a home, experience makes all the difference in the world. We’ve been successfully helping sellers sell their homes for top dollar and buyers successfully purchase a home amid multiple-offer situations. If you or someone you know is thinking of buying or selling a home, do them a favor and make sure they’re working with someone who has the experience to get the job done well.

Our team has the necessary experience to help you win, so if you need any help or have questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We’d love to help you.

What Will You Do After You Sell Your Home?

What are you going to do after you sell your house? Do you have a plan?

We got a referral call the other day from a client, and this is what he told me: “Chris, we're thinking about selling our home. We feel like the market's reaching a peak or is close to a peak and we think we want to wait and then buy back in when the market goes down.”

In theory, that sounds like a great concept and I agree with them. I do think the market is reaching a peak. For anyone thinking about making a move, the key thing to consider is not so much what you do right now when you sell your home but what you do after you sell it. Are you going to take the money and move out of state? Are you going to take the money and reinvest it? Are you going to put it in the bank and wait for the market to soften up? It’s hard to time markets, but we know that markets run in cycles. The cycle we've been in has lasted almost eight years.

If you're thinking about making a move or wondering what to do with your property, you don't have to make a decision. What you do need to do is contact us so we can help you think through all the options and help you decide what's best for you. That's why we're here. Have a great day.

What If I Can’t Buy After Selling a Home?

Here’s how we’re helping both buyers and sellers win in this hectic market.

A lot of people who are contacting us have the desire to make a move, but they’re concerned or fearful about being able to find a new home. Extremely low inventory and strong demand are dominating our market.

On the selling side, we’ve been able to create an auction-like effect on our properties, which is causing them to sell for more than they normally would. On the buyer side, you need an agent who knows how to win in a multiple-offer situation and can find properties that aren’t on the market yet. These are two things that we do at a very high level. 

If you or someone you know is thinking about buying or selling a home, give us a call so we can get these strategies in place for you. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

So when you have any real estate-related need or know of someone who does, please think of us. After three decades of helping families make smart decisions, here’s one thing I can say for a fact: The right agent makes all the difference in the world. We have a lot of happy customers out there that will tell you the same.

Did Our Market End 2020 on a Strong Note?

Whether you’re a buyer or seller, we can help you.

We’re in a crazy, unusual real estate market right now. We have very low inventory and very high demand. Part of the reason we have high demand is that interest rates are extremely low and many people haven’t been able to buy homes due to low inventory. What are we doing to help people looking to buy or sell a home?

On the buyer side, we’ve been successful in helping people find off-market properties. This is key because once a property goes live on the market, you might have to compete against other buyers for it. There are specific things we can do to locate properties before they go on the market. 

On the seller side, the biggest problem we’re seeing is that agents are making a lot of mistakes in how they’re pricing properties. This is the type of market where you should be getting top dollar for your home. If you have the right pricing and marketing strategies, you’ll do just that. 

If you or anyone you know is looking to buy or sell in this market, don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We’d love to assist in all your real estate needs.
