Real Estate Market Report | January 2019

Keller Williams Realty 2731 77th Avenue SE, #205 Mercer Island, WA 98040 Each office is independently owned and operated.

Do We List at the start of 2019 or Hold Off Until Spring?

Real estate sales during the winter season have seen an upswing in recent years. Research indicates this trend is due to holiday gatherings offering families the opportunity to discuss future needs without the interference of hectic work and daily schedules. And, of course, the New Year offers the feeling of a fresh start!

The Advantage of Listing in Early 2019 Many buyers are out looking for homes in the new year, whether they are re-energizing their search from last year or they made the decision to move during the holiday season. Several companies also relocate their employees around the start of the year, creating an additional demand for homes.

Worried about Missing the Spring Market?

No one can predict the future, though if you wait until everyone else lists their home in the spring, your home may not see the exposure you are expecting, especially if there is lower demand!

Even with these new trends, the winter season inventory is still generally lower, therefore, your home will actually receive more exposure to serious buyers, which can lead to a quicker sale and higher price.

Jonathan and Angela-Marie, For more information on the best time to list your Mercer Island home, contact me today at (425) 941-4229. I wish you a delightful and prosperous new year!
