Why Fall is the Time to Buy or Sell
Good bye Summer Hello Fall There are many reasons to buy or sell a 
home in the fall and we can't help but push back on any thoughts that the season should be dismissed as subpar. 
After all, vanilla is the top-selling brand of ice cream, but does that make it better than other frozen treats? 
We think Not! Consider these reasons to buy or sell this fall.

Sell Your home in the Fall

Stand out in Lower Inventory. Spring may have higher demand, but it also comes with higher inventory.
Your home listing in the fall means less 'Competition' and better offers. Make sure you have done a great job of addressing your curb appeal, staging and cleaning to help your home really shine. 

Motivated Buyers

Buyers who are shopping for a new home in the fall or even in the winter usually have a strong reason to do so. Their motivations could include a recent transfer, a desire to have their kids in a new school prior to midyear breaks or if it's before school starts, and just wanting to celebrate the holidays in a new space.

Attract Unique Buyers.
With more families wanting and needing multi-generational living spaces the search for a home could be a longer process, pushing the process beyond spring's peak. Buy Your Home in the Fall

See Homes First.
Often, sellers will be encouraged to pull their home off the market for the winter holidays. This means inventory will and then surge again in the spring. Shopping for a home in the fall will allow you to see houses before the flood of showings after the holidays.

Motivated Sellers.
Sellers who keep their listings active in the fall usually have a motivating factor behind their decision, which can benefit you. While it isn't fully a buyer's market, because they likely have less showings, they may be more open to accepting your offer.

Get Settled

Buying a home in the fall has several time sensitive benefits. Your first mortgage payment won't likely hit until the New Year and you may celebrate the winter holidays in the new space.

Save Money In an analysis of over 30 million homes, sales spanning a 15 year, found that home buyers who purchase in October paid nearly 3% less than in other months. You can also get into your new home right in time for the end of year sales on appliances and electronic bonus!
