5 Reasons Listing your Home this Fall is a great choice!

Every year we see a surge of listing activity in the Spring, as expected, and then another surge again in the Fall. These are by far the two best times to have your home on the market. Statistics prove that activity is greater in March, April, May and again September, October, November. So if you’ve thought about selling your Outer Banks home, it’s definitely time to get started! Take a look…

1. You’ve collected all the rental income! Why carry the home through the winter?
2. If you’re facing a Capital Gain, right now the tax rate is 15% which is scheduled to change to 20% starting January 1, 2013.
3. Why go through the hassle of winterizing and re-preparing the home next year? Sell now and let the buyer take care of that.
4. Inventory is down 24% and number of sales up 17% compared to this time last year. That’s a much better environment to sell your home in!
5. Buyers get the bug while on vacation and then come back in the Fall when access to the home is easier. You’ll have eager buyers ready to deal so they can spend the holidays here.
