Why the Growing Number of Homes for Sale Is Good for Your Move Up
Abstract
Are you thinking about selling your current home? If so, the biggest question on your mind may be: if I sell now, where will I go? If this resonates with you, there's something you should know. Opportunity #1: Take Advantage of More Options for Your Move Up If your current house no longer meets your needs or lacks the space and features you want, this gives you even more opportunity to sell and move up into the home of your dreams. As more options come to market, you'll have more to choose from when you search for your next home. Opportunity #2: Sell Before You Have More Competition Just know that, in order to make sure your house shines above the rest, it may make sense to put your home up for sale before your neighbors do the same, creating more competition in your area. The increase in the number of homes being listed for sale is expected to continue, and a recent study from realtor.com says two-thirds of homeowners looking to sell say they'll do so by August. That's because the process of getting a home ready to sell isn't taking as long as you may think. You have a unique opportunity to benefit from the additional homes being listed today and sell before your house has more competition.
