ATTENTION BUYERS: It’s happening ….

Did you know that for the first time in three years, there are as many new listings coming on the market as there were as many price drops!

THIS IS GREAT NEWS FOR CURRENT BUYERS!

This past week, we listed this beauty in Hendricks County, and within four days, it had a very solid offer at asking price. From the Buyer’s perspective, it was close to stress-free as it could be compared to what the market looked like a few months ago. No crazy Bidding Wars. An Offer with an Inspection! And enough TIME to really think about it. Are you thinking what I am thinking??? It was a BUYER’S DREAM!

If you have been holding off on buying due to the housing market, it may be time to start looking again. Call me at (317) 325-0655.

Tips to Avoid Buyer’s Remorse

The last thing you want to do is regret buying a house. It’s typically the largest purchase you make, and something you have to live with (and in) for some time.

But people regret buying houses so often, it has a fancy term that gets thrown around—“buyer’s remorse.” Whether it’s that they feel like they spent too much money, they bought in the wrong neighborhood, bought the wrong house, or worry that the house is too small, it’s common for people to regret buying the house they bought.

It happens in any market, not just a fast-paced one like we’ve seen recently driven by the pandemic, low inventory, and low mortgage rates. But this market certainly hasn’t made it easy to avoid buyer’s remorse as The New York Times points out in this article.

The problem is, many buyers just don’t prepare themselves to be well-informed, confident buyers in whatever market they happen to be buying.

Fortunately, you can avoid buyer’s remorse, and not just in a “hot” market. Click here for some things you should do to avoid it.

And only 10% accept??

iBuyers companies continue to make the news with their gimmicks on offering a faster, more convenient way to sell a home. I just saw an interview with the Zillow CEO, stating, “…while people would come to our site (iBuyer) and we’d give them a good offer, only about 10% accepted the offer.”

Let that sink in…. “A good offer” and “Only 10% accepted”

I’ll bet that less than 5% of people who received offers actually sold their homes. That’s less than 1/10 of what a good Realtor would get done for their clients.

There’s a whole LOT more to taking a property from “For Sale” to a successful closing than the technocrats understand.
