4 Reasons Fall Is a Great Time to Sell Your Home


 If you’re wondering whether the fall is a good time to sell your home, I have some good news for you. Here are four reasons why fall is still a great time to sell.

If you’re thinking about listing your home and are worried that the summer selling season is over, I have some good news for you—the fall is actually a great time to list your home. Why is this? Here are my top four reasons:

1. We still have very high demand. We have a lot of buyers out there that are ready, willing, and able to purchase homes; they just haven’t seen the right homes yet.
 

2. There is less competition on the market in our area. We usually see an influx of homes listed on the market during the spring, which means more competition, but that is not the case in fall. There are also a lot of new construction homes that are being built right now, so there will be even more competition once those are finished.


Low inventory and high demand make fall a great time to sell.


3. It’s a great time to move up. There may not be a better time than now to move up on your home purchase. Home affordability is extremely high right now and interest rates have remained low. If you’ve been thinking about selling your lower-priced home in order to move up into a higher price range, right now may be the best time to do that.
 

4. Buyers in the fall market are more serious. Anybody that is out in the market right now more than likely needs to move quickly into a new home, potentially before the holidays.

If you have any questions about buying or selling a home during the fall, give me a call or send me an email. I’d be happy to help you!
