Market Minute

Is Spring really the BEST time to jump into the real estate market? I think it’s a great time…here are 5 reasons why…

PRICES PEAK – In some ways, residential real estate is  different than other markets—in the spring when there is the most inventory, it’s often the time when we see the highest list prices.  It sounds counterintuitive, but it’s a function of demand being seasonal.

GREAT COMPS  – The spring market provides buyers and appraisers more comparable sold data to substantiate values. There is typically less data available during the winter months which means that a home that sold below its value may be the only data point available for appraisers to take into account.

NUMBERS DON’T LIE – Real estate demand is seasonal and the start of the season is SPRING! This is the perfect time to list your property and expose it to the largest buying pool of the year. For buyers, you’ll have the benefit of most inventory!

BIDDING WARS – With more buyers in the market, this is the time of year you are the most likely to encounter multiple offers – list in the Spring when there is a large supply of homes available on the market.

LOOKING GOOD – Properties tend to look better during the spring vs. the dreary days of winter or the scorching summer season. Your property will shine brighter in the spring with everything in bloom.
