In this blog post, we will explore why the summertime is favorable for real estate, provide tips for both buyers and sellers, and highlight the benefits of taking action. Discover how you can seize the summer and make your real estate dreams a reality.
You may have heard before that spring is generally the most popular time to buy or sell. While this may be true, the summer brings its own set of advantages to the table.
Summer listings typically attract incredibly motivated buyers who are eager to settle into their new place before the start of the school year, or those who want to take full advantage of time off and ideal weather conditions. Properties also tend to look their best during the summer — with lush green lawns, blooming gardens and vibrant exteriors making strong outdoor spaces look even more visually appealing.
You may be asking yourself, “why not wait for next spring when supply and demand are both at their highest?”
As always, it’s incredibly important to work with knowledgeable professionals every step of the way. Get pre-approved for a mortgage as early as possible in order to develop a realistic and strategic budget. Ensure you work with an experienced REALTOR® to find a home that not only meets your needs and preferences, but exceeds them.
