Although it sounds reasonable to think with all the guests coming, it would be better to just sell the home in the fall or spring, take a look at these 5 reasons you could be missing out by waiting.
- Inventory has been our biggest challenge in terms of pricing. June, July and August are historically the time of year when our inventory is the lowest. Why not take advantage of that incredible opportunity? Lower inventory means higher prices.
- The Outer Banks will have over 3 million visitors each year. Obviously the majority of those folks visit during the summer months. We cannot get that kind of exposure any other time of year!
- The home is fully open and operational. Buyers will have inspections done before closing. When the house is winterized during the fall/winter, there are extra costs to open the house back up for those inspections. Right now, everything is up and running and easy to inspect to assure the buyer the home is in good condition.
- It’s a beach house! When does the beach look the best? Summer time of course. Your beach house will show the best with sun shining, deck chairs out, pool open, hot tub running! Buyers get excited about these things and it helps to sell your home.
- Buyers this time of year are serious about buying! If a potential buyer is going to take time out of their much anticipated vacation to look at your home, it means they are serious about buying. They’re here with all decision makers too.
