Hurry Up!!! Call me so we can get your house listed!!

What's the urgency you might wonder as we are just now entering the hot "Spring Market"? well, so far in 2015 homes sales have outpaced the same time period last year, all while inventory continues to be down.

 

Additionally, pending homes sales, those going into contract, are also on the rise. 

Buyer demand in January was three times higher than last year. Meanwhile current inventory levels in the market are not meeting the demand, this is continuing to maintain a favorable Seller's Market. In a Seller's Market you can expect some great advantages, such as:

• Higher Sales Prices. This means that you can likely command a price in excess of your desired list price, and it certainly puts the negotiating power on our side. 

• Concessions, concessions, concessions... this can often be a sticking point in real estate negotiations, but what if you didn't have to give in, or even bend more than you feel comfortable to accommodate your buyer? Well then this is your market. When Seller's have the power, because buyer demand is high, you don't have to say yes and you are in the position to be able to reject offers that place too high of a demand for concessions.

• The privilege of dominating the transaction.  In a Seller's Market  we can negotiate shorter inspection periods as well as instructing buyers to waive certain contingencies such as loan and/or appraisal contingencies.This allows us to quickly discern qualified buyers from unqualified ones opening the door to accepting a back up offer if we should need to.

These are just a few of the ways that entering the market now can maximize the return on your property investment. As an experienced agent I can guide you through the pluses and minuses of this Seller's Market and perhaps show you advantages that you hadn't thought of or considered. 

However, just as important is my experience as an agent which will put you in a strong position to buy your next dream home, after all it's a Seller's Market, but the right agent can create a win win scenario from both positions. Call me today for a free Market Analysis.
