Summer has come to an end! You probably think you've lost the opportunity to sell and need to
1. Serious Buyers - Let's be honest, if buyers are out during the slow season looking for homes, they are serious and ready to buy. Although the summer brings in a large crowd, that crowd contains many people excited by the season, and fall into the "trend" of house hunting. These people end up being less serious about the process and tend to hold off for another time. If people invest time to look during the fall season, they are more likely to be interested in buying your home instead of just touring it.
2. Less Competition - Selling in the fall isn't something many families can accomplish due to busy personal schedules. That is why a significant amount of homes get listed during the summer season. This means that summertime brings in much competition. Selling in the fall means the potential house next door with slightly more perks listed during the summer doesn't make your home sit stagnantly. It also doesn't devalue your home because of the house that could go up next door under-priced in your neighborhood, drawing all of the attention. With a slower season, you get dedicated attention to your property, which increases the chance of a sale.
3. Easier to Find Your Dream Home - Not only do you benefit from a slower season during the selling process, but you can also benefit from the buying side. With less competition in your dream house, you can get a better deal. The summer brings many missed opportunities for buyers in their dream homes because they instantly go off the market. This will give you the chance to get your home on the market and take your time to find the right one to resize into. A much calmer pace to the transaction will make it less stressful, and everyone all around happier. Don't feel rushed into buying a home overnight during the summer. It could turn into a headache. If you want a far more peaceful transaction with a calmer pace, then selling during the fall is perfect for you.
