Peep the details below ??
?
? 1. INTEREST RATES: Interest rates have remained at historic lows for quite some time now. But according to many leading economists, those rates are going to start to rise this year.?
?
While buyer foot traffic is typically lower in the Winter months, there are still a lot of buyers who didn’t find homes last year, yet want to take advantage of those low rates.?
?
Here’s why: Increasing interest rates can affect buyers’ purchasing power (how much house they can afford).?
?
Listing your home now, while interest rates are still really low, will allow buyers to lock in their rate for 60 days (meaning before Spring).?
?
?
? 2. LESS COMPETITION: By putting your house on the market now, you won’t have to compete with all the homeowners following the trend of waiting for Spring. YAY!?
?
? 3. SERIOUS BUYERS: As I said, the number of buyers on the market tends to be less in the Winter months. That might sound like a negative but the silver lining is actually that you’ll attract the buyers who are serious and ready to move now. ???
