This Might Be the Best Year to Sell Your Home

If you're considering making a move in the future, here are 4 reasons why 2019 might be the best time to sell.

1. Interest rates are still historically low.
It's a great time to purchase a new home because mortgage rates are still very low. We're happy to connect you with lenders who will give you low rates and a clear picture of your purchasing options.

2. You have high equity in your current home. If you own a home in the greater Boston area, odds are that your home has increased in value since you purchased it. That means you've got more equity in your home than you may realize, and now might be a great time to sell and put that equity to use.

3. There is a lot of demand. As you've probably heard, there are plenty of buyers looking for homes in Greater Boston. Our area is attracting more people, so leverage that demand and strike while the iron is hot!

4. Selling now might be better than waiting until 2020. No one can predict exactly how the market will behave in the future, but real estate experts are predicting that the market will begin to cool at some point in the next few years. Additionally, many municipalities in our area are looking at ways to increase the number of available homes, which will also cause the market to level off.
