4 Major Incentives To Sell This Summer<\/p><\/div>\n

While the housing market forecast for the\u00a0second half<\/a>\u00a0of the year remains positive, there may not be a better time to sell than right now. Here are four things to consider if you\u2019re trying to decide if now\u2019s the right time to make a move.<\/p>\n

1. Your House Will Likely Sell Quickly<\/strong><\/h4>\n

According to the most recent\u00a0Realtors Confidence Index<\/em><\/a>\u00a0released by the\u00a0National Association of Realtors\u00a0<\/em>(NAR), homes continue to sell quickly. The report notes\u00a0homes are selling in an average of just 17 days<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Average days on market is a strong indicator of buyer competition, and homes selling quickly is a great sign for sellers. It\u2019s one of several factors that indicate buyers are motivated to do what it takes to purchase the home of their dreams.<\/p>\n

2. Buyers Are Willing To Compete for Your House<\/strong><\/h4>\n

In addition to selling fast, homes are receiving multiple offers. NAR\u00a0reports<\/a>\u00a0sellers are seeing\u00a0an average of 5 offers<\/strong>, and these offers are competitive ones. Shawn Telford, Chief Appraiser at\u00a0CoreLogic<\/em>,\u00a0said<\/a>\u00a0in a recent interview:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe frequency of buyers being willing to pay more than the market data supports is increasing.<\/strong>\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This confirms buyers are ready and willing to enter\u00a0bidding wars<\/a>\u00a0for your home. Receiving several offers on your house means you can select the one that\u00a0makes the most sense for your situation and financial well-being.<\/strong><\/p>\n

3. When Supply Is Low, Your House Is in the Spotlight<\/strong><\/h4>\n

One of the most significant challenges for motivated buyers is the current inventory of homes for sale, which while improving, remains at near-record lows. As NAR\u00a0details<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cTotal housing inventory at the end of May amounted to 1.23 million units, up 7.0% from April\u2019s inventory and down 20.6% from one year ago (1.55 million).\u00a0Unsold inventory sits at a 2.5-month supply at the present sales pace, marginally up from April\u2019s 2.4-month supply but down from 4.6-months in May 2020.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There are signs, however, that more homes are coming to market. Odeta Kushi, Deputy Chief Economist at\u00a0First American<\/em>,\u00a0notes<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cIt looks like existing inventory is\u00a0starting to inch up, which is good news for a housing market parched for more supply.<\/strong>\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

If you\u2019re looking to take advantage of buyer demand and get the most\u00a0attention<\/a>\u00a0for your house, selling now before more listings come to the market might be your best option.<\/p>\n

4. If You\u2019re Thinking of Moving Up, Now May Be the Time<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Over the past 12 months, homeowners have gained a significant amount of wealth through growing equity. In that same period, homeowners have also spent a considerable amount of time in their homes, and many have decided their house doesn\u2019t meet their needs.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re not happy with your current home,\u00a0you can leverage that equity to power your move now.<\/strong>\u00a0Your equity, plus current low mortgage rates, can help you maximize your\u00a0purchasing power<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But these near-historic low rates won\u2019t last forever. Experts forecast interest rates will increase in the coming months. Nadia Evangelou, Senior Economist and Director of Forecasting at NAR,\u00a0<\/em>says<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cNevertheless, as the economic outlook for the United States looks brighter for the rest of the year,\u00a0mortgage rates are expected to rise in the following months<\/strong>.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As interest rates rise, even modestly, it could influence buyer demand and your purchasing power.\u00a0If you\u2019ve been waiting for the\u00a0<\/strong>best time to sell<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0to fuel your move up, you likely won\u2019t find more favorable conditions than those we\u2019re seeing today.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bottom Line<\/strong><\/h3>\n

With supply challenges, low mortgage rates, and extremely motivated buyers, sellers are well-positioned to take advantage of current market conditions right now.
