Sell Your Home This Summer Selling your home can be no easy feat, especially during the hot summer months. According to the National Association of Realtors®, fifty percent of homes are sold during the summer months. Selling in summer also gives families time to settle in before school starts. Here are a few tips from to make sure your house is sold for the best price and in plenty of time for fall: Summer Plans. Plan your annual vacation in advance so that you can list your home accordingly. Timing is everything when it comes to selling a home, so make sure that when offers start coming in that you aren’t out of town.

Landscaping. Your front yard is the first thing people notice about your house, so make sure your lawn and flower beds aren't suffering in the summer heat. Keep the grass trimmed by mowing often, plant fresh flowers and remove any debris from the lawn. Also, clean your deck, porch, patio or outdoor kitchen and repaint or make any necessary repairs. This is your outdoor space's chance to shine, so keep it in top condition all season.

Work with a Realtor®. All real estate is local, so it’s important to work with a Realtor® who is familiar with your community. These professionals know the pricing strategies, buyer preferences and marketing approaches that will achieve the best results in your area.

Keeping these tips in mind will help you increase your chances of quickly finding the right buyer for your home this summer.

Mission Statement: The North Puget Sound Association of Realtors advocates for Realtors and their clients, provides services to help members prosper, and promotes the protection of property rights.

Moving On Up

Today’s rising equity has some owners thinking of cashing out and upgrading their home

The recession that plagued the housing market is fast receding and home prices and values are not just resurfacing. They are shooting up.

The Standard & Poor’s/ Case-Shiller 20-city home price index jumped 12.4 percent in March compared to the year-ago period. In several markets across the country prices

are well above the 20072008 levels, according to RealtyTrac. Suddenly, the market is a seller’s paradise.

While many potential first-time buyers are struggling with loan approvals and overpriced yet sparse inventory, the situation is quite different for existing homeowners.

They are reaping the benefits of growing equity

So, is now a good time to invest in that move-up home before affordability becomes an issue?

taking the leap and moving into a larger home while locking into a great rate.”

Yet others say that the market is still very complicated and it’s best to tread with caution. Daren Blomquist, vice president of RealtyTrac, says it’s going to be a tricky dance for homeowners looking to move up.

“The positive is it’s a great time to sell,” he says. “[Owners] probably hold a lot of equity on their current homes and will be able to sell quickly.”

But, the problem would be finding the new, bigger home at an affordable price.

Here are a few tips for buyers looking to move into a bigger home.

Sell Now, Buy Later Summer is the busiest season for the housing industry. With inventory levels still low, Blomquist says it’s a good time to sell and reap a good price. But, this may not be a good time to buy because the market is fiercely competitive. “I think a good strategy would be to sell July 25, 2014

now and possibly wait until the fall or winter to buy when it becomes a buyer’s market,” he says.

Do Your Homework Find a trusted Realtor. Consult friends and family and interview a few agents before finding someone you are comfortable with. Map school districts and places that have open houses on Sundays, Piper says. Get access to apps that will help you with the buying process (think calculating mortgages and listing updates).“Having the pulse of the market is very important,” Piper says.

Practice Patience Be ready to make four or five offers before you land a home, Blomquist says.

Don’t offer more than what the property is worth or what you can actually afford.

Budget your expenses well and make a wish list, Piper adds. Make sure you have enough money left after your mortgage payment to buy furniture and pay your utilities.

RE-Weekly.com

Be Creative in Your Search Besides hiring a Realtor and looking at the usual places, expand your search to the social media. Look for properties that other buyers may not be interested in or know about. “As many as 30 percent pocket listings are not listed with agents,” Blomquist says. “You need to tap into those places.”

Don’t Be Too Picky Look at foreclosures and distressed properties. Many of those homes are not listed for sale but are likely to hit the market in the near future.

Get financing in order The market is filled with cash buyers, and they are fiercely competitive. It’s more important than ever to have a prequalified mortgage before you start shopping. Look for a property that’s priced less than what you can afford, which will help if there are multiple bids, Blomquist says.
