What Can Sellers Expect this Year?

In case you hadn’t been thinking about it, the week of April 12-18 would have been, historically, the best time to list a home for sale…However, with people hunkering down over COVID-19 concerns, along with economic uncertainty, the housing market’s best time for anything has likely shifted. Still, historical seasonal trends can give us some insight as to what we might expect later in the year as things settle …READ MORE

There are 30 active listings this week. Much lower inventory compared to last year. This is good news for sellers. The bad news is CORONAVIRUS that has slowed things down due to UNCERTAIN ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, precautions taken by Sellers and Buyers and the current social distancing recommendations. However, we are optimistic that things will improve once again by LATE summer.

Fifteen listings are priced over $500,000. One property is listed over $1,000,000. Five active listings have had a price reduction (0 this week). This usually means that the property is overpriced. However, given the COVID-19 situation, some sellers may want to re evaluate their pricing to motivate buyers. We are still in a seller’s market and there are less price reductions as the inventory decreases. Once we get over this virus situation Sellers thinking about selling should act quickly and get their property on the market. Prices remain strong. Mortgage Interest rates remain low.

The demand is high for properties under $400,000. There are only 6 listings under $400,000. This will make it more difficult for buyers looking in that range because of the competition from other buyers. Multiple Offers expected for entry level buyers. Nine (9) are priced between $400-500,000.

Timing is everything. If you're on the fence about selling, now is the time to get off and put your house on the market.

Property price reductions? 

What does this mean? Usually, the property was overpriced from the beginning. 

However, sellers are recognizing the market change.  

There are less price reductions as the inventory decreases.

Sellers that haven’t been able to sell their property in this market should re-evaluate their strategy and adjust accordingly based on the current market circumstances.

During the period of May 1, 2020 through May 8, 2020 there were reported 2 new listings, 4 closed sales, 1 pending sale, 0 active with contract, 0 expired listings, 0 cancelled listings, 0 Temp off market, 0 price reductions and 0 price increases. Interest rates remain low. A GREAT TIME TO BUY OR SELL.

Attention Sellers!

Low Inventory + Low Interest rates = Sellers Market.
