Why Now Is A Great Time To Sell

 


A lot has changed in the real estate market over the past several years.  If you are like a lot of other homeowners, you may have postponed the idea of selling your home for various reasons.  Here are some questions to ask yourself if you are thinking of selling.

 
  • Has your family situation changed or will it in the near future?


  • Do you want to move closer to family and friends?


  • Does the area where you live no longer suit your needs?


  • Does your home no longer meet your space requirements?

 
  • Do you foresee a job relocation?

 
  • Do you just want a change?


If you answered yes to any of these questions, now may be an excellent time for you to sell your home.

 
Existing home sales have risen 20% since 2011.  Factors contributing to this rise are increased job growth, lower interest rates on mortgages and small inventory.  It's interesting to note that, historically, the average homeowner stayed in their home for 5 years. Recent statistics show that the average stay in one home has risen to 9 years.

 
Before making the decision to put your home on the market, be sure to speak to a local real estate professional who is actively selling homes and can show you a track record of success.
