What Every Homeowner Should Know About Their Equity
Curious about selling your home? Understanding how much equity you have is the first step to unlocking what you can afford when you move. And
Many sellers and even up until recently I believed spring was the best time to put your homes on the market because buyer demand traditionally increases at that time of year. What most don’t realize is if every homeowner believes the same thing, then that’s when you’ll have the most competition, obviously.
Housing supply traditionally shrinks at this time of year, so the choices buyers have will be limited. The chart below was created using the months supply of listings from the National Association of Realtors.As you can see, the ‘sweet spot’ to list your house for the most exposure naturally occurs in the late fall and winter months (November – January).
Temperatures aren’t the only thing that heats up in the spring – so do listings!In 2018, listings increased from December to May. Don’t wait for these listings and the competition that comes with them to come to the market before you decide to list your house.
At this time of year, purchasers who are serious about buying a home will be in the marketplace. You and your family will not be bothered and inconvenienced by mere ‘lookers.’ The lookers are at the mall or online doing their holiday shopping.
If you’ve been debating whether or not to sell your house and are curious about market conditions in your area, let’s get together to determine the best time to list your house over coffee.
As always thank you for reading, I appreciate you and your time.
