Is your home currently on the market, or are you thinking of placing it on the market sometime soon? Are you ready for the truth about the housing market right now?
The fact is this: now is the best time in years to buy a home. In other words, if you are buying, you are in great shape. Now is a wonderful time to buy that first home or even buy the home you've always wanted. First time homebuyers are in the best position because they have no home to sell. However, even move-up buyers really aren't at a disadvantage because if they don't get top dollar when selling, they will definitely come out on top when buying. Only those who are selling but not buying will be in the worst possible position. If that's the case, I would suggest you not place your home on the market unless you absolutely have to sell.
Let's assume you have made the decision to sell. Are you ready for the truth now? First of all, when you place your home on the market, it becomes a product. No one can put a dollar value on your memories, and a buyer will never appreciate your home the way you do, at least until they live there and make their own memories. May I make a suggestion? Assuming you're buying something else, go find that home RIGHT NOW. I say this because you need to mentally let go of your current home. Unless you're ready to let go, you will not make rational decisions and you will not be able to sell your home.
We'll talk about this issue more later.
