Twin Cities Realtor Aaron Brown Shares Spring Housing Market Secrets

Spring is widely considered the best time of year to sell a home, due to high demand, warmer weather and more daylight hours that bring out the buyers. “In fact, the largest number of buyers are actively searching for new homes in spring, making it a seller’s market,” said Realtor Aaron Brown, of Weichert, Realtors-Advantage. “For buyers, be aware that the competition in spring is fierce.”

To help buyers and sellers, Brown lists the following four tips about the housing market this spring:

No. 1: Inventory is low and going fast. “Many homes priced right are receiving multiple offers just days after hitting the market,” noted Brown. “Be ready to put in an offer by being pre-approved with a trusted lender.”

No. 2: Interest rates remain low, but may be going up. Although slightly higher from this time last year, interest rates remain historically low. “Locking in an interest rate early this spring will save you money on your mortgage payments,” added Brown.

No. 3: Make a realistic offer. “Lowball” offers on homes that are priced right are often not even considered by sellers. “It’s important to make a fair offer,” stressed Brown.

No. 4: It’s the perfect time to sell. “Because home inventory levels are so low, there’s no better time to put your home on the market than now,” concluded Brown.
