Thinking about buying or selling...
The Market
Being aware of market conditions gives you the right outlook when it comes time to putting your home on the market to sell.
We all want the most out of our home. The more we can make than what we put into it, the better! Keep in mind that market conditions are always changing and this can impact the value of your home. Relying on sites like Zillow or Trulia to give an estimation of your property's value can, and oftentimes will, lead to disappointment. Their values can differentiate by up to 20% of what their Zestimates claim - their words, not ours. This is why it's imperative to hire a professional to provide a true analysis of your property so you can have a better understanding of what your home is worth in current market conditions. You can then make the decision of selling your property if it's the right step to take based on its value.

Once you've received an offer, your agent will review with you the terms and conditions of that offer. After an offer is accepted and the negotiations are done, you'll go into a 30-45 day contract period, while the buyer's lender works to secure the full loan. During this transaction period, home inspections and appraisals are conducted. Your agent can then work with you to negotiate any repair requests the buyers might make.
