The spring market has come and gone, and with the advent of school, the summer market will be reaching its conclusion in the next few weeks. If you haven’t found a buyer for your home yet, don’t despair: That means there are still buyers out there who haven’t been able to close the deal on their ideal home – and your home could be just what they’re looking for.
Of course, you’re not the only seller out there who’s hoping to capitalize on end-of-the-summer buyers . To draw attention to your property, keep up on cleaning and maintenance tasks – keep the lawn cut and refresh the blooms in porch planters – and, yes, get serious about lowering your price. End-of-summer buyers know they’re in a good bargaining position with sellers anxious to close a deal before the holidays. You don’t have to lower your price to rock bottom levels – just make sure it’s competitive. An experienced agent knows the market inside and out. Let them suggest the best asking price for your home based on current market indicators to attract the buyers most likely to be interested in your home, and position yourself for a sale before the leaves start to fall.
