So, what does  all this mean for you?

For buyers looking for that “great deal” there is still time if you’re aggressive and prepared. If you’re able to pay cash, be ready to jump on great deals that come on the market. We’ve seen multiple bids on well-priced homes and condos within days of hitting the market.

For sellers, it’s a great time to list and sell your home. I’m sure you are familiar with the age old rule of “supply & demand.” With lower inventory comes greater demand for homes like yours. Buyers are looking for homes that are priced right and taken care of.

As a seller, you will most likely be a buyer as well. Keep in mind that even if you’ve lost equity in your home, it can be made up and even doubled on your next purchase.
