Spring Selling Season Is Heating Up
All signs indicate that the spring home selling season in Austin is heating up. Sales and listing data for February 2010 and the partial numbers for March 2010 show increased activity. Sales have increased by 19.64%, pending sales are up 18.37% and the good news is new listing volume is only up 8.22%. If you are thinking of selling this is great news. If you qualify for the $6500 move up tax credit there is still time to act before the deadline of April 30, 2010.
For those that are contemplating selling I would keep two things in mind and they are price and condition. Buyers in today’s markets are looking for clean move in ready homes that have a market based price. Even well priced homes can sit on the market if not staged correctly which is why we send a decorator out to every property that we list to insure the property shines. If you are thinking of selling there is a lot you can do prior to meeting with a realtor to stage your home.
Good luck! Please remember we are only a call or email away from helping you with your Austin real estate needs.
