Sellers are asking on a regular basis, “Should I sell now or wait until next season?”
My emphatic answer: Sell now. Maybe you're asking, why wait? Is there any benefit to waiting, especially with an election coming at the end of the year?
Many indications tell us that prices are higher now, and a lot of the low inventory has sold, which means you have less competition and more motivated, serious buyers searching for homes. The tire-kickers and sight-seers have gone home. We are seeing families, locals, and anyone relocating with children buying now so they can be settled in before the new school year starts in August.
Locals typically buy after season; anyone who has a job in a seasonal industry is just too busy otherwise. The upcoming spring market up north means more homes will sell, freeing up buyers to come down and buy your home once theirs is sold.

My favorite reason to sell now is that you can net more money. By stopping the cost to carry for another year, you can put all that money into your pocket right now. If you’re a gambler, you could try your luck waiting until next season, but selling now likely means selling at a higher price with a lower cost to carry.
If you’re considering selling, I am happy to provide you with a market evaluation to see the best price your home will fetch in today’s market.
