Buying a Birmingham home? Search all homes for sale
Today I am excited to share with you a piece of wisdom I’ve learned throughout my years in real estate. People think you need to wait until spring to sell, but that is a myth in real estate. So is the myth that the only time you can get top dollar is in the spring. Here’s where that comes from.
It’s true that there are a lot of home buyers out in the market in the spring, looking to purchase homes and move in by the end of summer. However, after extensive market research, we have found that buyers are always buying homes. If you look at the market totals over a 12-month cumulative period, there is minimal decrease in activity month-over-month. It’s usually less than 1% in most months, which turns into maybe 50-70 buyers tops.
In reality, we have had some of our best months during the holidays, because a lot of people are ready to buy at that time. If buyers are out looking at homes during the cold, dark winter months, they are serious and ready to make an offer if the right property comes along.
If you are ready to sell, now is the time to list your home on the market and get top dollar. If you have any questions for us, or want to know more about how you can sell your home for top dollar, give us a call or send us an email. We look forward to hearing from you!
