Have you been kicking around the idea of putting your home on the market, maybe to upgrade to a larger home or even downsize before yard work becomes a must? Homes do sell all year long, but some months are routinely better for sales than others, and we are entering the high volume season.
It just makes sense that families are beginning to look as school ends for the year, so they can make that big move during the summer. Companies also know that it's easier on their employees to transfer during the summer. And don't forget the weather-- warmer days, sunshine, blooming flowers, green grass, and shady trees all make a home more attractive than during the bleak winter months.
But it's not summer, you say? No, but those buyers intending to move in the summer are already house hunting. It may take a month to find the perfect home, then a month to close the transaction, and, boom, we're into summer. If you wait until July or August, you've missed a large pool of buyers who are already moving into their new home.
So call your trusted realtor now to preview your home. Follow her advice on sprucing, decluttering, painting and staging. Then put that "For Sale" sign in your yard and start packing!
