Developing Patience When There Will Not Instantly Be A Buyer For Every Listed Home Any Longer |
|
One of the strangest things over the past few years was how nearly every listing had a buyer (or buyers) in very short order once it hit the market. Inexpensive home - of course, lots of interest. Expensive home - still, lots of interest. House with an odd layout - sure, still interest House with a steep driveway - no problem, we are interested House needing repairs - yep, the interest is there And on, and on, and on. Almost every listing would receive nearly immediate attention and typically would see multiple offers within the first week it was on the market. It certainly made it easy to assume your home would sell quickly once it went on the market. Nearly every home was. Now, however, some home sellers are discovering that there is not going to instantly be a buyer for every home that is listed for sale. Certainly, plenty of homes will still see immediate response from buyers, and an offer or offers within days of hitting the market -- but not all homes. Thus, some sellers will have to readjust to a slightly longer time on the market. Just because your home does not go under contract in the first week or two does not mean that we will never find a buyer who wants to buy your time. For the past few years I told every buyer they needed to be patient because they might miss out on quite a few homes before landing a contract on one. Now I am telling at least some sellers that they will need to be patient while we wait for the right buyer for their home to show up on the scene. Recent Articles:
