Notes for Sellers
• Favorable conditions persist. With strong demand, it remains a good time to sell in most suburban areas.
• Strategic pricing is essential. Even in a seller’ s market, overpricing can deter buyers. Work with a local agent to determine a competitive price based on recent comparable sales.
• Highlight key suburban draws. In your marketing, emphasize features like good schools, spaciousness, community amenities, and recent updates.
• Home inspections are crucial. Especially for older homes, a thorough inspection can save you from unexpected major repair costs.
