Even though we're still experiencing fabulous weather here in Florida, we are heading toward wintertime. This is the time of year when homeowners get skittish about selling; conventional wisdom has them thinking it's currently a bad time to sell a home. Today, we want to talk about why that couldn't be further from the truth.

The truth is, as we approach the holidays, we here at Vero Beach are at 15-year low of available inventory. That means it's a great time to put your home on the market. People who want to buy during this time are serious about doing so. While your friends are sitting around drinking eggnog and shopping, you could be showing your home. 

With inventory as low as it is, you will have very few homeowners to compete with when you list your home. People think the holidays are a bad time to sell, but, when you think about it, there are only four days over the next month you don't want people walking through your home. You can schedule your home showing to fit your lifestyle, avoiding days like Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Years Eve, and New Years Day.

The buyers who are looking now are often relocation buyers, who need to find a home by the end of the year, or who are trying to beat the spring rush to the market. Now is a great time to find an ideal buyer for your home. Additionally, buyers who are in a hurry are more likely to pay a little bit more for your home.

Give us a call today and we'll do a market analysis on your home. We can determine what you can realistically get for your home in today's market and discuss your options. We would love to help you take advantage of this market!
