When You Want To Sell Your Home

You might be thinking about selling your home. After all, Spring is coming, right? When is the best time of year to sell your home? Is it Spring, Summer, Fall, or.... Winter? The answer might surprise you, or you might even think I'm pulling your leg. Many think that Winter isn't a good time to sell because the real estate market is "slow."

Well, it certainly has been harder to get around in Moses Lake because of the snow, but that hasn't kept me inside. I went to all of the open houses on our Broker's Open House Tour on Tuesdy, and they were wonderful to go into. In fact, there were only four on tour instead of the usual 10-16 or so, so I was able to go see every one of them, and I'd love to sell each one of them. So, if you are selling your house in the winter time and there are just a few homes on tour, then the agents will get to see every one of them in the 3 hour time span of tour, and the more likely that if they SEE your home, they will want to sell your home to the buyer they have, waiting to purchase their dream home. So, when is the best time to sell your home? THe answer is: anytime there's a buyer and an agent who gets to show your home. I have four clients who are preparing to sell their home with me as their real estate agent, and it's an exciting time of the year for them!

May your home be on the next Tuesday Tour!

Oh, and if you're snowed in while you're reading this, how about playing a fun game? Scroll all the way to the bottom and play the GYRO GAME.
