When the market turns this sharply, there are a multitude of typical real estate sins that can be forgiven! Experts say the US housing shortage is far from over -US inventory levels were at 1 million units in January 2020 and are now less than half of that, sitting a little over 400,000 in January 2022.
In this deep seller’s market, these 3 real estate sins are now forgiven, maybe even rewarded!Â
1. PRICING TOO HIGH
In a more normal market, pricing your home too high was a cardinal real estate sin, often backfiring on over-confident sellers. Their big-ticket homes would unintentionally make the competition look more attractive. I still believe that pricing way out in front of the market could have negative consequences, but with so few homes to choose from, buyers can’t be choosy! Today an over-priced home will still sell but it might take more than one weekend!
2. BEING HOUSE POOR
3. INSTALLING POOLS
THANK YOU to our clients! Your business, referrals and continued trust make this possible. We are honored to be nominated.
If you’re in the Austin area, your home is worth more than ever! With life-changing money within reach, you might be thinking about your next step. Where would I go? Would we sell? Should we lease? Can we refinance? Should we buy investment property? How do we buy land? My days are filled with these conversations…let’s sit down and talk about your next steps!
