Presently, the Greater Vancouver residential market is on the upswing! Prices are slowly starting to creep back up and multiple offer sales resulting in over-asking price sales are occurring on some properties in popular neighborhoods because buyers are coming back to the table with renewed confidence in our real estate market. More great news! mortgage rates remain low and are anticipated to remain as such until the second quarter of 2010. Thinking of selling? Now is the best time since March 2008 to list a property.
The key element to attracting a willing Buyer/s with a reasonable offer is to ensure that the original List price is attractive to potential Buyers. Home buyers are savvy. They have access to a lot of information and often, they are very familiar with current market values. Over-pricing in this marketplace will lead to a lot frustration and ultimately, a price reduction so why not price the property sharply from day one of the listing and hopefully, sell your home earlier in the selling cycle rather than later? The best offer usually comes in the first 2-3 weeks of listing your property for sale. Why miss that opportunity? If I can assist you with establishing current market value of your home for the purposes of listing and selling, please phone me!
