It’s a good time to buy and a good time to sell.
”
As you can see, it’s a great time to think about selling. Inventory is down and prices are up- the perfect storm for selling for top dollar. At the same time, interest rates are still at historic lows, so it is a great time to buy and lock in a long-term rate too. You won’t be negotiating lower prices as a buyer, but you can still negotiate for things like closing costs, appliances, and home warranties so you are in a better position as a buyer.
If you have any questions for us or need help buying or selling down the road, we are always here to help. Just give us a call or send us an email any time. We look forward to hearing from you!
