I'm going to get right to it...
BUYERS...
THIS IS YOUR TIME to buy in SW Florida.
The number of listings on the market are at a
13-year high with the price adjustments you've been waiting for. There are some absolutely beautiful properties on the market...waiting for you to grab them! Even better, you do not have a lot of competition for these properties as many Buyers are not in a hurry and still waiting to see where the bottom will be.
I know you have concerns like Reserve Studies, Structural Inspections, rising Insurance costs, Mortgage Rates, flood risks and general Affordability. Rest assured I am well-versed when it comes to all of these issues. Did you know that it is now required that all Sellers provide reports to you now regarding 3 of those issues and that you have 3 days to terminate the deal if you don't like what you see?
If you need to sell as well, it's a little more tricky with Values sliding backwards by a few years but you will make up the difference on the Buying end!
Bottom line, whatever your concerns, get in touch and let's talk them through.
SELLERS: If you are actively selling your property or considering it, the key is to stand out in the crowd. While you can't control your view or location, you CAN make the home look the best it can. If it is vacant, consider having it physically staged. The money will more than come back to you when you sell over everyone else that has not done anything to update their property. Offer Buyer concessions like credits towards closing, furnishing, updates, credits towards assessments. Experienced agents like myself can give you suggestions to stand out in today's market.
Price is very important but so are Buyer
perceptions and concerns.
Whether Seller or Buyer, one of the many ways I can help you is by working with you to understand your priorities, needs/ wants, and concerns. Don't think you are "wasting my time" by contacting me to discuss your thoughts. I hope it's the beginning of a beautiful relationship!
