Thinking aboutย selling your house? If you are, you might be weighing factors like todayโsย mortgage ratesย and your own changing needs to figure outย your next move.
Hereโs something else to consider.ย Accordingย to the latestย Home Purchase Sentiment Indexย (HPSI) fromย Fannie Mae,ย the percent of respondents who say itโs a good time to sell is on the riseย (see graph below):
One reason why is because right now is traditionally the best time of year toย sell a house. A recent article fromย Bankrateย says:
โLate spring and early summer are generally considered the best times to sell a house. . . . While todayโs rates are relatively high, low inventory is still keeping sellers in the driverโs seat in most markets.โ
These are the seasons when most people move. That means buyer demand grows. And because there still arenโt enough homes for sale to meet that demand, sellers see some serious perks. According toย Rocket Mortgage:
โHomes that are listed at the end of spring and the beginning of summer typicallyย sell faster at a higher sales price.โ
More sellers are coming to realize conditions are ripe for a move. And thatโs one reason why weโre seeing more homeowners put their homes up for sale. If you think you might want to get in on the action, itโs a good idea to start preparing.
A local real estate agent can help you get your house ready by offering advice on how best to fix it up and make it appealing to buyers in your area.
They also know if you list during the peak buying seasons of spring and early summer, you might sell quickly and for a higher price.
If you list during the spring and early summer, you might sell your house quickly and for a higher price.ย When you’reย readyย to make the most of today’sย sellerโs market, get in touch with a local real estate agent.

Fraud attempts happen when individuals (Buyers & Sellers) have provided email credentials in a phishing attack at some point in the past. These may have happened 5-20+ year ago without your knowledge but could effect you today.
Scammers set rules in your email account to forward legit emails and then delete the forward automatically. This allows the scammer to spoof parties to the transaction (Lender, Title Company, Realtor, etc.) and insert fraudulent wire instructions or fraudulent pay off instructions that seem legit. The scammers will intercept actual emails and replace them with the fraudulent instructions and make it look like it’s being sent by a party to the transaction.
To help avoid this from happening to you, I’m providing some flash cards with step by step instructions to help you eliminate scammers who might already have access to your inbox. (Need to do these on a computer NOT your phone).
Funds being targeted in real estate transactions: Buyer’s funds for closing, Seller’s proceeds, Payoff letters.
Take these tips to protect your email to help avoid becoming a victim of wire fraud.

Are you thinking about buyingย a home soon? If so, you should know todayโs market is competitive in many areas because the number of homes for sale is still low โ and thatโs leading to multiple-offer scenarios. And moving into the peak homebuying season this spring, this is only expected to ramp up more.
Remember these four tips to make your best offer.
Rely on aย real estate agentย who can support your goals. Asย PODSย notes:
โMaking an offer on a home without an agent is certainly possible, butย having a pro by your side gives you a massive advantage in figuring out what to offer on a house.โ
Agents are local market experts. They know whatโs worked for other buyers in your area and what sellers may be looking for. That advice can be game changing when youโre deciding what offer to bring to the table.
Knowing your numbers is even more important right now. The best way to understand your budget is to work with a lender so you can getย pre-approvedย for a home loan. Doing so helps you be more financially confident and shows sellers youโre serious. That gives you aย competitive edge. Asย Investopediaย says:
โ. . . sellers have an advantage because of intense buyer demand and a limited number of homes for sale;ย they may be less likely to consider offers without pre-approval letters.โ
Itโs only natural to want the best deal you can get on a home, especially whenย affordabilityย is tight. However, submitting an offer thatโs too low does have some risks. You donโt want to make an offer thatโll be tossed out as soon as itโs received just to see if it sticks. Asย Realtor.comย explains:
โ. . .ย an offer price thatโs significantly lower than the listing price, is often rejected by sellers who feel insultedย . . . Most listing agents try to get their sellers to at least enter negotiations with buyers, to counteroffer with a number a little closer to the list price. However,ย if a seller is offended by a buyer or isnโt taking the buyer seriously, thereโs not much you, or the real estate agent, can do.โ
The expertise your agent brings to this part of the process will help you stay competitive and find a price thatโs fair to you and the seller.
After you submit your offer, the seller may decide to counter it. When negotiating, itโs smart to understand what matters to the seller. Once you do, being as flexible as you can on things like moving dates or the condition of the house can make your offer more attractive.
Yourย real estate agentย is your partner in navigating these details. Trust them to lead you through negotiations and help you figure out the best plan. As an article from theย National Association of Realtorsย (NAR)ย explains:
โThere are many factors up for discussion in any real estate transactionโfrom price to repairs to possession date.ย A real estate professional whoโs representing you will look at the transaction from your perspective, helping you negotiate a purchase agreement that meets your needsย . . .โย
In today’s competitive market, be sure to work with a local real estate agent to find you a home you love and craft a strong offer that stands out.
