They Say Real Estate Slows Down During the Wintertime, But it Doesn’t Have To…

You always hear how the market slows down during the winter, but we personally haven’t experienced a slow winter yet! Here are a few reasons why it isn’t a bad idea to go ahead and get your home on the market or to continue your home search during the cold months.

  • Sellers: Most people have the misconception that they will wait to put their home on the market in the spring because they think there aren’t many buyers during the winter. In fact, there are still a ton of people looking, and they actually may be more serious and ready to buy! You won’t have nearly as many other listings to compete with, either, so your home moves right up to the top of buyers’ lists, purely out of necessity.
  • Buyers: We all know that this past year has been a sellers’ market, and if you’ve been watching Zillow at all, houses are under due diligence or pending within just days of being on the market. Something that may give you a competitive edge is that you might get a better deal in more ways than one. The sellers who had their home on the market through the summer market and hadn’t sold it yet are probably pretty motivated. This could mean the possibility for a good deal, whether it be a lower purchase price or more assistance in closing costs. Some more good news: interest rates might be lower during the holidays!

Let’s heat up the market this winter! Call us at Ring the Bell Realty today to find your home.

    "I can’t say enough about how wonderful it was working with Michelle! This was our first home purchase, and she made things simple! We were always able to get in contact with her quickly. As first-time home buyers, there were many things that we had questions about, and Michelle was always there to help us in any way that she could. She recommended wonderful inspectors and gave us excellent advice. I plan to recommend her services to everyone we know! Thanks so much!"
    - Stacy
    "I loved working with her. We looked at 4 or 5 houses before we made a final decision. She helped me and my family find the house just for us. Very nice, patient lady! We’re glad we had her as our realtor."
    - Erica
    "Michelle was fantastic. She really tried to show us properties that would fit our needs. She was extremely flexible with scheduling showings. We loved working with her."
    - lisa
    "AMAZING – this girl worked her tail off to get us in our home under a huge time crunch. She was convenient to work with. I never had to take time off work until closing! Friendliest, sweetest, most helpful realtor I could have imagined. I was a first-timer, and she kept me informed the entire way, from finding me a house that wasn’t even on the market yet to working out the details of getting us in it ASAP. She’s the best, I promise."
    - Amanda
    "Michelle is great to work with. Our experience with our loan and dealing with the sellers was less than ideal, but she came up with solutions to all of the problems and was able to avoid losing this transaction. She went above and beyond the call of duty and recommended various service providers in the area that were great to work with in order to get our new home ready to move in. She has a high level of professionalism and integrity, and I would highly recommend her to work with anyone."
    - Monterro

    "Michelle was very helpful. She found solutions for problems that arose. She held several open houses to show the house. Responded to all questions and inquiries in a timely manner. Michelle and her team were always nice. They remained positive and were encouraging through the whole process."
    - sjbgob
    "Michelle and company expedited the marketing and sale of our house in a way that made it possible to sell our home in less than 3 months. She made the process as painless and positive as possible."

    "As first-time home buyers, we relied heavily on Michelle's knowledge and expertise and she did not
    disappoint! We greatly appreciated that she was always very accessible and helped answer our many
    questions about the home buying process. Michelle was patient and honest throughout our entire home
    search, which were key factors in us finding a house that truly suited our needs. We loved working with
    Michelle and would highly recommend her!"
