What is Your Motivation to Sell?

With autumn in full swing and the holiday season rapidly approaching, many people are contemplating whether to move now or wait until spring. Unfortunately, there is not a universal answer. The seller’s needs, motivations and goals all play into their decision. For example, if the seller has family in Florida and there is nothing tying them to the current area, they are apt to list the home now.

My thought process is since inventory levels are still extremely low and interest rates are below 4%, right now is an outstanding time to sell their home. If the seller is looking to sell but has the ability to wait until spring, there is the potential to get more value out of it then. The only challenge with waiting until spring is that you may be competing with only 30-40 houses now versus 200-300 houses in the spring. With that amount of competition, you may not get the price you want. My recommendation to sellers will be based on your motivation. When we find your needs and desires, we mold that into our marketing plan, list your house and get it sold.
