Researching current local market trends and dynamics is vital in making an informed decision about the ideal timing to list your home. The Tampa seller agents/Orlando seller agents/South Florida seller agents at One Percent Guys Full Service Real Estate Pros can provide valuable insights into buyer demand, inventory levels, and pricing trends that may influence the best time to sell in your area.

We are continuing or series of articles discussing different times of the year to sell your home. Our previous article covered the fall months. Today, we will look at some advantages to putting your home up for sale in the winter.

Winter: The Season of Opportunity and Niche Markets

While winter is typically considered a slower season for real estate, it presents unique opportunities for sellers who are willing to take advantage of niche markets and specific buyer motivations.

Winter listings can target motivated buyers, such as holiday move-up buyers or corporate relocations. Some individuals may be relocating due to professional demands, while others use the holiday break to finalize their home purchase. By tapping into these niche markets, you may find buyers who are willing to act swiftly and may be less concerned about negotiating a lower price.

Furthermore, lower inventory during winter means less competition for sellers. With fewer homes on the market, your property could capture the attention of serious buyers who are specifically searching during this time, potentially resulting in a higher sale price.

Our next article will cover advantages of listing your home during the spring months.

Pay Attention to This When Making and Offer on a Home

in ,

We are concluding our series of articles discussing some aspects you should pay attention to when making an offer on a home. Let’s take a look:

Review the Contract Carefully Before Signing

When making an offer on a home, it is crucial to review the contract carefully before signing. Failure to review the contract carefully may lead to hidden surprises, misunderstandings, or even legal disputes. The Orlando seller agents/Tampa Seller agents/South Florida seller agents and buyers agents at One Percent Guys Full Service Real Estate Pros will go over all contracts and paperwork with you before you sign.

Take Note of Contingencies and Deadlines

A contract typically includes contingencies and deadlines that can have significant consequences if not fulfilled. These may include an inspection contingency, mortgage contingency, or closing date contingency. Be sure to review these contingencies and deadlines thoroughly, understand them, and ensure that they are satisfactory before signing the contract. The Tampa seller agents/Orlando Seller agents/South Florida seller agents and buyers agents at One Percent Guys Full Service Real Estate Pros can explain any contingencies and deadlines included in the contract.

Have a Backup Plan in Case Financing Falls Through

Even with pre-approval for a mortgage, financing may still fall through before the closing of the sale. It’s important to have a backup plan in case this happens. For example, you could explore other financing options or work with the seller on a lease-to-own agreement. A backup plan can give you peace of mind and prevent delays or even the loss of your dream home. Our Tampa seller agents/Orlando Seller agents/South Florida seller agents and buyers agents can help you explore the various financial options available to you.

If you are seeking to buy or sell a home, then one percent real estate is the most affordable way to go.

Mistakes to Avoid When Making an Offer on a Home

in ,

While it may sound easy, making an offer on a home is a very detailed and sophisticated process. Do the right things when making an offer and you can put yourself on the path to homeownership. Step the wrong way and you could lose a potential dream home. The Tampa seller agents/South Florida seller agents/Orlando seller agents and buyers agents at One Percent Guys Full Service Real Estate Pros have extensive experience with helping buyers make offers and advising sellers what offers to take and which ones to turn down. Our next series of articles will cover some mistakes to avoid when making an offer on a home.

Not Getting Pre-Approved

The first thing you should do when entering the market for a new home is get pre-approved for a loan. This not only helps you know your maximum price range, but a loan pre-approval letter is attractive to sellers. Not getting pre-approved for a loan may result in you making an offer on a home you will not be approved to purchase. You also could have your offer rejected in favor of someone who does have a pre-approval letter.

Going it Alone

Making an offer on a home without the guidance and advice of a real estate agent can be risky. Real estate agents have the knowledge and experience to help you negotiate an offer and outline contingencies that meet your goals and objectives.
