Are you a homeowner wondering if now is a good time to sell your house but are still on the fence about it?
If you are thinking about selling in today’s market, it is worth considering all the reasons why making the move could make sense to YOU. I share 4 main reasons and maybe these will help you identify your own..
According to Real Trends, the most common sellers will be homeowners downsizing, people moving to get more space, and families looking for better schools for their children.
In a recent survey by Realtor.com found that the top four reasons homeowners were considering listing their homes were to take advantage of the current low inventory to make a profit.
Even though home prices have declined slightly in some markets, they are still higher overall than a few years ago. This is mainly due to the low inventory we are experiencing. The second reason is the home no longer meets the family’s needs. 32% state that they have outgrown their current home and the average person has now been in their home for 10 years. For some, that is a long time. Plus, your home requirements can change over time.
The third reason to sell is to move closer to family. 27% of homeowners want to live closer to their friends and family.
And the last reason homeowners are selling this year is to downsize. 25% want to downsize to a smaller home that has less maintenance and work. The bottom line is you have a lot to consider when deciding if now is a good time to sell your house and move on.
