Everyone is asking me about what’s going on in the market, and what I expect will happen this summer. Right now, we’re very busy and the summer market is hot. We’re seeing a lot of buyers today after a slow start to the season. There were far fewer buyers at the beginning of the year than we usually see, but starting in April, we saw a lot more activity. That said, we’re anticipating that we’ll be extremely busy through July, August, and into the fall. This creates a huge advantage to those who choose to sell now. With little inventory on the market right now, your home will really stand out. Less competition means a faster sale and a higher price for you. Additionally, interest rates are low and projected to rise.



Interest rates are low, which is pushing
more and more buyers into our market

We have an election year coming and while things are stable, it’s an excellent opportunity to sell. Interest rates are low and it’s pushing buyers into our market. You can actually net more money right now by having a higher sale price and eliminating the cost to carry. By selling now, you will not have to pay until next season. If you’re thinking about selling, we should be talking. Call or email today. I’d love to hear from you.
