Top 10 Reasons to Sell Now
 

Today we are going to give you 10 reasons to sell your home in our current market, instead of waiting until the 1st of the year or until next spring. All of these reasons help illustrate the point that selling now can net you a lot more money than waiting can.

10. More Buying Power
 Selling now can give you more buying power to purchase as a non-contingent buyer once January rolls around. It gives you more negotiating power as well.

9. New Hires 

The beginning of the year is when most companies bring in new hires to the area. They will want to move in at the beginning of the year, but find a home now, towards the end of 2014. You have to be on the market to take advantage of this.

8. Secure a Contract Now While Selling is High 

You can also arrange for a delayed closing or rent back from the buyer if you don't want to move right away.

7. Less Competition 

Many sellers will wait to list their homes until the first of the year. This causes a big increase in inventory. The more you wait, the more you create competition for yourself.

6. Low Interest Rates
 Interest rates are incredibly low right now. This allows buyers to afford more in the market.

5. Motivation 

More people become motivated to buy during the holiday season than at any other time of the year.

4. Emotions 

Buying a home is an emotional purchase and emotions tend to run high during the holiday season. They tend to offer higher prices as well

3. Time Off 

Many people have time off during the holidays, increasing their availability to see homes. Buyers out in this market tend to be very serious about finding good homes quickly.

2. Taxes 

 Another motivation for buyers around this time of year is taxes. A lot of people are trying to purchase homes before the end of the year so they can get the tax breaks from them.

1. Low Inventory 

There are typically much fewer homes on the market this time of year. Less supply means less competition, which in turn means more money in your pocket for your home sale.
