It was quite a week in Manchester NH area Real Estate Market. We saw a giant increase in new listings hitting the market. Many of the homes going under contract in less than a week. Interest rates rose to 5.3% on average. With additional increases promised by the FED, buyers are hurrying to buy now.We are seeing a great deal of relocation buyers coming to NH for our great jobs. We are also seeing a great deal of first time buyers still entering the market. One of the most steady buyers is those looking to downsize now as well.  The fact most people are not getting is that the longer you wait, the more it will cost you to buy with these higher interest rates. We are seeing new listings not selling when they are over priced. Many home sellers are now wondering if they waited too long to s...

Where do I start? As expected I got a great deal of offers on my last New Manchester NH area Listing. However one newer agent insisted on texting in their offer. No, it was not any type of form, just a regular text with a price and some contingencies. It read like this, " Here is my buyers offer on your hose listing. They will pay $400,000, close on 2/15/22 and is contingent on a mortgage, the property appraising and an inspection." (offer price and closing changed to protect the situation). Reading the text a couple of times, I decided to call the agent. They did not answer. I left a message. A couple of hours later, i still had not heard back from the agent. I was going to submit all offers to the seller at noon as noted in the MLS and called this agent once again to get their offer i...

What will the week after Thanksgiving be like in Real Estate was the question being asked all weekend. The fall market saw a boost in sales which is cooling as the Holiday season is upon us. Home Sellers continue to ask if they should list now or wait until 2022? Last week saw a cut in half of new listings coming on the market. It only takes my a few seconds to let them know we still have a good amount of buyers looking for a home. Add in less homes on the market and that makes NOW the time to sell.

Thanksgiving is upon us this crazy 2021 and It is that time of year when we give thanks for various things. Today we give thanks that we can avoid some Pit falls in Real Estate. There are certain words and phrases that strike fear into Buyers, Sellers and Real Estate Agents alike. Here in the Manchester NH area it is my goal to educate you on what to look out for. Some may be light-hearted with others more serious, with the bottom line being that you do not want to learn these the hard way. Being on top of every sale or purchase can head off most of these.   THE TOP COMMENTS THAT BRING FEAR TO ANY REAL ESTATE DEAL   1. "Out of town" Appraiser. Who probably does not know YOUR market. 2. A "new" Home Inspector. Anxious to start finding issues. 3. The Underwriter needs one more thing "the...

You have the right to remain silent. Let me tell you WHY. See.. a Home Buyer was interested in a Manchester NH Home For Sale. They took a ride by where the seller was out cleaning up the leaves. They stopped to talk. They asked questions and the seller talked, and talked and talked some more.   The next day the Buyer agent sent over an offer from their buyer. The listing agent took one look at it and wondered what the heck they were asking for all this stuff for. Replacing a bathroom. Painting the upstairs. Moving in a week before closing?  A call to the seller and things started to explain themselves. In their finer judgement, the seller spoke to the buyer about taking the home off the market if it did not go under agreement by Christmas. That they would complete a couple of upgrades a...

Our "FALL MARKET" typically slows just before Thanksgiving. There was a sharp increase in new listings last week with 20 new listings hitting the market. We are seeing a steady flow of Buyers wanting to buy now to be able to close before Christmas. That gives them less 10 days to get a home under contract. That makes NOW the time to sell.

One segment of the Manchester NH Real Estate Market that is RED HOT is the Multi Family market. While residential sales slow a bit come winter, the investment market is very strong. We are seeing both owner occupied buyers and investors looking for properties. Owner Occupied buyers are waiting for more 2 to 4 family homes to come on the market. The larger investors are shopping from any where to 5 to 10 to 100 unit buildings.

It was really  strange when a Manchester NH Area Home Seller canceled our listing appointment. When I asked why, he said he met with another Realtor who told him that buyers start to decline during the Holidays. It was strange, because the fall market here in the Manchester NH area can be as busy as the Spring market. I convinced him to let me come anyway to at least see the home. I got the grand tour and we sat to talk. I brought him a stack of listing sheets that have gone under contract or Closed/Sold this fall. The point was to show him how busy it really is. Halloween is not really a holiday that keeps people from buying or selling a home. Buyers buy anytime of year they need a home. He was quite impressed with me he said. Could i come back and meet with his wife next week to list ...

With Halloween right around the corner, have you ever wondered WHY a home has not Sold yet? We are seeing some homes selling in days. Then we are also seeing some homes that seem to be on the market for ever. Some times it is beyond ones control and for others, there is some one to blame. There are many factors that affect selling.  Some may sound harsh, some may sound like common sense. In the mean time please enjoy my blog based on my experiences here in the Manchester NH area.   TOP 5 SCARIEST Reasons your home will NEVER sell  1. YOUR HOME IS OVER PRICED: Nothing can keep a home from selling more than it being priced to high. The amount of homes For Sale is increasing slightly while the amount of Buyers looking has started to lower.  2. THE EXTERIOR OF YOUR HOME IS NOT APPEALING: Ma...

With Halloween almost upon us, Buyers and Sellers are asking if the market will be giving them Tricks or Treats. The "FALL MARKET" typically slows come November. Less Sellers can be good for Sellers who do not want so much competition. The same can be said for buyers, as we see the amount of buyers looking start to wain. Those that are looking are more likely to have a chance if they make a great offer using a great buyer agent. You need Experience in Real Estate to master these changing times. Lets take a look at the Monday Morning Market update for the Manchester NH Real Estate Market.  Many sellers are asking about selling now or waiting until next year. The best advice is to "call me to list now". Interest rates went up a little more last week making this the time to buy and sell be...

I have been noticing some homes in the Manchester NH Real Estate Market, are staying on the market a little longer. I did not have long to ponder why, when I noticed another trend. I have received quite a few inquiries over the last month where the different people seemingly ask the same question. "Why isn't my home selling?" The first thing to note, is they are not any sellers of homes I have listed. The immediate thought that came to me was, "Why are they reaching out to me?" It did not take long for the sellers to tell me they either saw one my online posts or saw a sign on a home I just listed go from For Sale to Sold quickly. I do ask what their address is so I can look up their property in the MLS. Sometimes the reason their home may not be selling pops right out at me. Take this ...
