There's no denying Gilroy, Hollister, Morgan Hill & San Martin have experienced a seller's market so far in 2013!

You've seen your neighbors sell their homes so fast you wonder how they packed up and moved out that quickly.  It's been an incredible time for both sellers and buyers in this area as we've seen homes go into escrow the same day they were announced.

Perhaps you've thought about selling your home but haven't been sure.  This active real estate market has driven prices moderately higher through increased demand and few homes for sale, but not so much that a crash looks inevitable.  Which means your home equity may have placed you in a position where a move makes sense now when it didn't even a few months ago.

You've heard of "cycles" in the market when your opportunities of selling at the terms you need may be better than others.  However, no time is a bad time to sell when:

• Your home is priced right
• When your home is clean and inviting
• When you're ready and it makes sense to do so

There are buyers in every market condition and cycle who want to buy a home - even when school is starting back up for the year and during the holidays.

Ask yourself, is it time to decide?  A complementary Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) from your local Realtor is only an e-mail or phone call away.  You're in a better position to chart your course when you're armed with accurate data. 

The back-to-school market could be a great time to get educated on your current home value and options.  Protect your investment and get informed.
