As they say, you can't win if you're not in!! Taking a home off the market does nothing but guarantee it will not sell. We're busy busy in the Autumn months.

Good Tuesday morning Debbie. I have noticed a slowdown in our market. I'm not too sure the reason for this. Perhaps folks are having second thoughts?

It depends on the seller. Some may not want to move until school is ending next year. Others want to move as soon as possible.

Debbie - Not sure about your area, but in the fall, through the end of the year, sales really drop off in my area.

Not yet, they are still hopefull for a sale yet this year. They don't usually give up until the snow flies and that could be anywhere from October until February.

Waiting is risky. how many buyers will be knocked out of market if rates go up 1-2%? Many buyers like to buy in fall and winter because they think there is less competition. They can't find the house if it's not on the market.

Smart home sellers know that home buyers want to take advantage of the low mortgage interest rates that are available now but may be higher in the spring.
