Many times people ask me the infamous question, isn’t spring the best time to list and sell my home? Shouldn’t I wait until March or April when the sun is shining and flowers are blooming?
Lomas Santa Fe
The statistics show most people wait until spring or summer to list their home. So, why do people list their home during the most competitive time? This may be an individual answer, though what I can tell you is less competition creates an opportunity to maximize the most value for your property.

HOLIDAY HOUSE HUNTING? There are lots of things to consider when shopping for a home. Of course, we all know the basics; mortgage rates, economic conditions, etc. Right now market conditions are generally good with the exception of inventory. After being in the industry for over 30 years, I can say without hesitation I have never seen so many multiple offers on the same property. I am not talking one or two, we're talking 15 - 20+ at times. Its only going to get worse, when mortgage rates go up. Who is going to be selling? Inventory is sparse and rates are still at historic lows. No better time than the present and no better time than when business is slow!
Inventory may be down a bit during the holiday and winter season but statistics show MOST people put house hunting on hold at least during the holidays. How can a house hunter benefit when the market is slow?

Thinking of listing your home? Don’t wait! Why wait until the spring when everyone else is looking to sell? People often think buyers are no longer looking because of the holidays. Well, if that were the case, I could take a two month vacation. But in reality, this is often my busiest time of year. Buyers just don’t “stop” because it is fall or nearing the holidays. They want to get into a property before the end of the tax year, or close before the start of the new school semester in January.
There was a decline of listings beginning October, 2016 – December, 2016 with an increase climbing high beginning in March, 2017. Between the months of October – November, 2016 inventory decreased by 20% and new listings decreased by 28%. Between the months of November, 2016 – December, 2016 the inventory decreased by 17% and new listings decreased by 16%. If you are thinking of waiting for the Spring months, inventory increased by over 200% compared to December, 2016 through March, 2017. Wow, that is a statement for competition!
Slow times can be a huge benefit to someone looking for a home, even listing a home.
There are Currently 3 Attached Homes Pending in Lomas Santa Fe.

• The multiple offer scenario is down. Your competition for the home of your dreams may be Black Friday shopping, attending parties and so on. Its true, folks. You have a much better chance of landing a deal on the home of your dreams without the added hassle of multiple offers when the market is slow. You may even get a better deal due to the lack of competition. Bidding wars are no fun! • The Feds are not the only ones to adjust mortgage rates. When banks are slow, they typically lower mortgage rates to bring in more volume. Adjustments in mortgage pricing can mean saving thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars. Good luck out there folks. Take advantage of the situation when you can!
