Beat the spring market!

Most think the spring market is April-June, however the April sales are properties that went under agreement in February and March. Each year I encourage people to get their homes marketed in January or February at the latest, and here are the two main reasons:

1)      There is reduced competition (not as many homes on the market)

2)      Buyers looking at homes in January and February are looking because they “need” to buy.
Most sellers do not want to come on the market in the early months because they want to wait until the home shows the best (green grass and flowers growing), and not wanting people to track mud into their home.
If you are thinking of selling in 2013, it would be wise to strongly consider getting on the market right away.
For a free computerized market analysis, or to have me walk through your home to let you know what you can do to make your home more marketable, simply call or email today.
