Today I’m really excited to talk to you about the prospect of what’s going to take place in 2018 and if selling a home is in your plans, you need to listen up. Here are five questions that home sellers should ask themselves as they look forward to the prospect of selling their home in 2018:

1. What is your market value? Market value is distinctly different from appraised value, which is distinctly different from sales value or other values that might show up online. These values are estimated based on information that can be distorted by not having the filter of a real estate professional who is an expert in the nuances of the market.

2. How can you spend your money in order to make money? Spending money on improving the property and selling in an efficient manner can give you a 2x or 3x return. You definitely don’t want a negative return.

3. How do you get the inspection out of the way? We can definitely help you with this too. There are a lot of options out there.

You don’t want to move twice.

4. How can you avoid moving twice? You don’t want to be in this kind of situation either. Having just one move to pay for is ideal.

5. How can you minimize the stress? There is a lot of it involved in making the transaction, but it’s definitely something we can help with.

If you have any questions, thoughts, concerns about this topic or about your situation, don’t hesitate to reach out and give me a call or send me an email. I would love to hear from you.

2018 is upon us, and I’m here to tell you that these next 12 months are expected to hold some exciting activity for the real estate market.

These next 12 months are expected to hold some exciting activity for our market.

Before I tell you what we can expect to see from the market, I’d like to personally thank the 150 families who allowed my team and I to serve them over the past two years.

But, let’s get back to our market predictions.

In 2018 there are expected to be about 1.2 million new housing starts across the country. We’re also set to see approximately 6.3 residential sales over the next 12 months.

Interest rates are hovering at the low level of 4%. This is causing a lot of robust activity in our market, already.

In other words, if you have any real estate plans for 2018, I encourage you to make your move and let us help.

If you have any other questions or would like more information, feel free to give us a call or send us an email. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
