Hope this post finds everyone in a good Fall frame of mind! This is the time of year that we will notice many sellers removing their homes from the mls. The thought process is "the holidays are around the corner, so no one is buying or selling". Not the case! People buy and sell real estate every day whether the market is bull or bare and whether its summer or winter. I could actually fight the case that now is the best time to place your home on the market as there is less competition. At the end of the day, if a home is in good shape, staged well and priced correctly ... it will sell!
Take a look at the most recent market stats for August of 2011. Closed transactions are up 25% over August of 2010. As well, Pending transactions are significantly higher and inventory of new listings is down! We have a long way to go to turn the market around, but every month feels like we are taking steps forward and not backward!
