Thinking of Selling? Now is the Time to Act

This is the absolute best time to sell while the buyer demand is the highest we have seen in years.   Sellers can expect to sell their home at the highest prices we have seen since the downturn several years ago. 

While the local licensed associates and Realtors are gearing up in anticipation of a busy season, we have a major dilemma glooming over us.  It’s important members realize the importance of  a“YES” vote for the upcoming Dues Assessment.   Unfortunately, not all of our members own a home in the club, and with less invested, may not see the relationship between supporting our amenities to assure the value of our club, including home values,  remain sound.

Impact of this Low Supply of Homes

It's a tug of war game for buyers looking to buy a home when there just are not enough to choose from.  It's the worst shortage of homes for sale in my entire career of real estate, nearly 30 years of being in the business.  The National Association of Realtors confirms this is the worst housing drought since they began keeping statistics 18 years ago.
