Is now a good time to sell your home? Well, the answer could be yes, and no. If you want to sell your house fast and get a good solid price, now is the time. However if you want to sell, but buy another house at a discount, you may be better staying where you are.
Discounted houses usually need a lot of work and may not have much equity after spending all the money to update. If you are willing to pay market value there are some nice, fairly priced homes available.
If your house needs too much work, this may not be the time to sell. Most buyers are looking for houses that are move-in ready. If you have a lot of equity in your home and are willing to sell at a discount, you still can sell quickly.
Investors and bargain hunters will usually close quickly with very few conditions and contingencies. In most cases investors pay with cash, which greatly reduces the time it takes to complete the sale of a home.
