Many homeowners tend to wait until the spring 'buying season' to list their homes for sale. We believe that is a huge mistake right now and came up with four great reasons to list your home: 1.) Demand Is High Home buyers are on the move, literally. First-time buyers are ready to stop renting or living with family; and move-up buyers, those selling their home and moving into a larger home, are on the hunt for the perfect space. There are buyers out there right now and they are serious about purchasing. 2.) Supply Is Low The market is being constrained by the lack of inventory. This number generally increases dramatically in the spring and summer when people choose to sell. By selling now when demand is high and supply is low you may get your best price.  3.) Prices Will Continue to Rise Home prices are increasing in most of our markets. Sellers in markets with the lowest inventory can expect the greatest appreciation in 2014. 4.) Interest Rates Are Projected to Go Up Again Most experts predict that interest rates will begin to rise this year.  Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the National Association of Realtors are in unison projecting that rates will be up almost a full percentage point by this time next year. Selling now allows you to buy a new home at a better interest rate – reducing your monthly payment. When you start the process, you should consider your timeline and goals. Why are you selling? What do you hope to gain? If you are feeling overwhelmed already, don't be! Choose a Realtor to help you start the process. A Ruhl&Ruhl sales associate will sit down with you and your family to walk you through seller questions to help identify your goals.
