The Ground Hog Realtor has spoken - Is the Spring market near?

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Godzyk Real Estate Services NH License 033394

Is the Spring Real Estate Market just around the corner or will there be 6 more weeks of winter until the Spring market blooms? The local and infamous Ground Hog , the Realtor woke from his winter nap here in NH and has spoken.

 

 

Here in the woods on the outskirts of Manchester NH, not a crowd gathered. No media in site. With a stretch and a yawn Mr. Ground hog the Real Estate agent spoke:

 

To all far and near,

this is no time to shed a tear.

 

With snow on the ground,

and me standing on this mound.

 

Although a cool wind is in the air,

all shall soon be fare.

 

For the snow will soon be gone,

and as I shout here at dawn.

 

The sun is not out,

so no need to pout.

 

My shadow I do not see,

so what could that be.

 

The Spring market shall soon be here,

and there is no need to fear.

 

So buyers and seller do not wait

or you just may be too late......

 

 

IN CONCLUSION: If your are thinking of Buying or Selling a home this year, now is the time to get a head start. My infamous words are that the BEST way to go about any home sale or purchase is to know that the consumer should not choose just any agent. All Agents are not created equal and every buyer or seller should take the time to hire the BEST not just the biggest. By using a philosophy, which is simple, to provide more personal and professional service to guide my clients through each step of the buying or selling process, I can help you find your dream home or sell your property. Your agent can stand behind you and assist with obstacles such as this.

Good morning, Scott -- very clever and without benefit of those guys in top hats and tuxedos.   Here's to the hot days of real estate in 2017 and beyond.

You are a poet at heart, Scott. Great piece. I loved it. 

That picture looks very cold. We have warmed up and are enjoying temps in the mid to high 40s. I have a feeling this is going to be one of those years that warms up early and summer will come early.

Hi Scott - Very nice! You have motivated me to repost my Groundhog Day expose from three years ago. Now let's hope that Phil doesn't let you down and that his market predictions are more reliable than his weather ones.

Wonderful post Scott!  You make me feel better when I think it is cold at 60º!  (embarrassed) Love the poem and the pic. I would be hibernating for 6 more weeks if I was Mr. P. Phil!

I understand that Punxsutany Phil saw his shadow this morning, so there will be six more weeks of Winter.  Of course that was in Pennsylvania, and Phil has an accuracy rate of 39%

Hi Scott Godzyk 

That was a very clever and enjoyable poem, especially "So buyers and seller do not wait or you just may be too late......"

That's a lot of snow, Scott. It would scare me to see my shadow. As to putting your home on the market? Why wait? There are buyers out there right now looking.

It's an early spring here, even if we end up with three feet of snow on the ground.  It won't deter the buyers.  And thankfully, sellers are coming out of hibernation to list.

I have found in the last few years that we don't have a traditional Spring market. Buyers come out when they need to and that's that!
