    Buyers: Interest rates are still low making now is a good time to get in the market. There are still plenty of homes to choose from and lots have been on the market a long time so there are some motivated sellers out there who need to sell their homes.

    Sellers: There is still a lot of competition right now and if you don't want your home to sit on the market without an offer here are a few bits of advise:

    • The most important thing you can do is price your home right, have your real estate agent do a CMA and price your home aggressively, that is in the lower range of similar homes if you want a quick sale
    • Have a pre-inspection done to your home and fix any problems
    • Give your home curb appeal
    • Offer a Home Warranty if it is an older home
    • Get rid of clutter, start clearing out your things, even if you have to put them in storage.
    • Think about staging your home, get advise from a staging professional or at least your agent.
