$\"A$ \n

This could be the year to sell<\/a> your house \u2013 and here\u2019s why. According to a recent NerdWallet<\/em> survey, 15% of people are planning to buy a home this year<\/strong>. That\u2019s actually a record high for this survey (see graph below<\/em>):<\/p>\n

$\"a$ <\/a>Here\u2019s why this is such a big deal. The percentage has been hovering between 9-11% since 2020. This recent increase shows buyer demand hasn\u2019t disappeared \u2013 if anything, it indicates there\u2019s pent-up demand ready to come back to the market.<\/p>\n

That doesn\u2019t mean the floodgates are opening and that there\u2019s going to be a huge wave of buyers like we saw a few years ago. But this does signal there\u2019ll be more activity this year than last.<\/p>\n

At least some of the buyers who put their plans on hold over the past few years will jump back in. Whether they\u2019re feeling more confident about moving, they\u2019ve finally saved up enough to buy, or they simply can\u2019t wait any longer \u2013 this is the year they\u2019re aiming to take the plunge.<\/p>\n

And, according to that same NerdWallet <\/em>survey, more than half (54%) of those potential buyers have already started looking at homes online.<\/strong><\/p>\n

That\u2019s a good indicator that a number of these buyers will be looking during the peak homebuying season this spring. So, if you find the right agent to make sure your house is prepped, priced<\/a>, and marketed<\/a> well, you can get your house in front of them.<\/p>\n

Bottom Line<\/h3>\n
More people are going to move this year and with the right strategy, you can make sure your house is one of the first they look at.<\/p>\n
What do you think these buyers will love most about your house? <\/strong><\/p>\n
Connect with an agent to talk it over and make sure it\u2019s front and center in your listing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
