If you\u2019re thinking of making a move,\u00a0<strong>here are four reasons to put your house up for sale sooner rather than later.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4><strong>1. Your House Will Likely Sell Quickly<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>According to the\u00a0<em>Realtors Confidence Index<\/em>\u00a0released by the\u00a0<a title=\"National Association of Realtors&amp;nbsp;\" href=\"https:\/\/cdn.nar.realtor\/sites\/default\/files\/documents\/2021-07-realtors-confidence-index-08-23-2021.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>National Association of Realtors<\/em>\u00a0<\/a>(NAR), homes continue to sell quickly \u2013\u00a0<strong>on average, they\u2019re selling in just 17 days.<\/strong>\u00a0As a seller, that\u2019s great news for you.<\/p>\n<p>Average days on market is a strong indicator of buyer\u00a0<a title=\"demand\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mykcm.com\/2021\/08\/18\/real-estate-its-still-a-lack-of-supply-not-a-lack-of-demand\/\">demand<\/a>. And if homes are selling quickly, buyers have to be more decisive and act fast to submit their offer before other buyers swoop in.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>2. Buyers Are Willing To Compete for Your House<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>In addition to selling quickly, homes are receiving multiple offers.\u00a0<strong>That same survey shows\u00a0sellers are seeing\u00a0an average of 4.5 offers<\/strong>, and they\u2019re competitive ones. The graph below shows how the average number of offers right now compares to previous years:<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2024\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2024\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2024\" src=\"https:\/\/phphouses.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/kcm-infographic-1631022727.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"870\" srcset=\"https:\/\/phphouses.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/kcm-infographic-1631022727.png 1000w, https:\/\/phphouses.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/kcm-infographic-1631022727-300x261.png 300w, https:\/\/phphouses.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/kcm-infographic-1631022727-768x668.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2024\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Average Number of Offers Received<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Buyers today know\u00a0<a title=\"bidding wars\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mykcm.com\/2021\/08\/31\/what-buyers-and-sellers-need-to-know-about-the-appraisal-gap\/\">bidding wars<\/a>\u00a0are a likely outcome, and they\u2019re coming prepared with their best offer in hand. Receiving several offers on your house means you can select the one that makes the most sense for your situation and financial well-being.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>3. When Supply Is Low, Your House Is in the Spotlight<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>One of the most significant challenges for motivated buyers is the current\u00a0<a title=\"inventory of homes\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mykcm.com\/2021\/07\/27\/a-look-at-housing-supply-and-what-it-means-for-sellers\/\">inventory of homes<\/a>\u00a0for sale.

If You\u2019re Thinking of Moving Up, Now May Be the Time<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>If your current home no longer meets your needs, it may be the perfect time to make a move.\u00a0Today, homeowners are gaining a significant amount of wealth through\u00a0<a title=\"growing equity\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mykcm.com\/2021\/07\/09\/your-home-equity-can-take-you-places-infographic\/\">growing equity<\/a>.\u00a0You can leverage that equity, plus current\u00a0<a title=\"low mortgage rates\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mykcm.com\/2021\/08\/23\/what-do-experts-say-about-todays-mortgage-rates\/\">low mortgage rates<\/a>, to power your move now.\u00a0But these near-historic low rates won\u2019t last forever.<\/p>\n<p>Experts forecast interest rates will rise. In their forecast,\u00a0<em>Freddie Mac<\/em>\u00a0<a title=\"says\" href=\"http:\/\/www.freddiemac.com\/fmac-resources\/research\/pdf\/2021Q3-Forecast-04.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">says<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cWhile we forecast rates to increase gradually later in the year, we don\u2019t expect to see a\u00a0rapid increase.
