Homes ARE Selling!!

Buyers Market?

Yes and I sold my home in one day at full price!

Yes it's true!  I've been wanting to move for the longest time but my youngest child was in the wrong school district. Now he is in the right one in highschool. I watched a neighbors house sell in three days with multiple offers and then watched another similar home have the same thing happen. So I hopped to it. Got the best stager to help me get my home ready. I priced my home at the bottom of the competition, no brainer for no ego. And it worked! 

If you want to move up and are realistic, now is the time!!!  If you price your home right, it will sell.  The reality is that we have lots of buyers in the market. They are circling, know the market and they will pounce when they see the right deal.  And so will you for what you want to buy.  For the first time in years the disparity in moving up is at it's lowest!  You might be selling lower but you will buying lower too likely.

Congratualtions Victoria!

"You might be selling lower but you will buying lower too likely." This is the case for alot of my current clients. As they are getting offers on their current homes they are also able to take advantage of this market as well.

good luck on your move.

I am glad you said it! Pricing right is key, because the market is still moving. I still see so many sellers pricing wrong, and paying for it. One example, i've been watrching a unit in a complex where I priced correctly, sold it in 4 days. The other unit still has not adjusted their price, which is $10,000 over priced. They have been paying the mortgage on this vacant unit now going on 5 months, so now they have to sell at the higher unrealistic price just to break even. What are their chances?

Victoria....   exactly... price wise and smartly, not greedy.  It's a buyers market with to many homes on the market.  If you don't have to sell, then don't take a loss.  My sister and brother-in-law had their house on the market for $289,000.  I could see it bought for $280,000 which would be a very good buy.  They need a bigger house, but selling $10,00 less would cost them a lot more money. So they are going to add onto the house, which is a wise decision.

Overall, you make some key points and sellers need to read this. Even some listing agents, who are doing a disservice to their seller.
