We hear that all the time. It’s a logical concern since very few can afford to be “the proud owners of two homes” for very long. Assuming that sequence (sell first, then buy) is necessary, let’s examine ways to not only make that work but also hasten the process.
As often as we hear homeowners make the statement above, we hear sellers add “but I’m not giving my house away!” Again this sounds logical, and is certainly human nature. After all, nobody wants to sell their home-sweet-home for less than they paid for it, but in many cases that is where the market is today, and the market is the market. Selling for less than you think your house is worth stings, but consider the following example which is really quite objective.
Let’s say you are selling a home in Toledo that you believe is worth $100,000, but the market appears to be saying it is only worth $90,000. Nobody wants to “lose” $10,000. But consider the second half of your move, the purchase. You are looking at a home in Temperance whose owners believe is worth $200,000. But if the same hypothetical market discount of 10% might be realized, that home would be purchased for $180,000 today. So you “lose” $10,000 but “save” $20,000 . . . What’s wrong with that picture. Of course this assumes that someone is moving up in price and these are purely hypothetical numbers. But the fact remains that sellers are likely to sell for less now than they would like but they will enjoy the other side of the transaction when they become buyers. Moral of the story: Sellers need to listen to their professional counsel and price their property to the market, and in the long run they will be just fine.
Not everyone seems to buy this logic. How about you?
Believe it or not I actually own a crystal ball, however I’ve found over the years that it doesn’t work very well. But we can identify several factors that contribute to the direction of the housing market, some encouraging, some not so good.
Let’s start with the negatives: No surprise about the first factor, unemployment in our region has a great impact on our market. Not only are the unemployed removed from the marketplace, but some others who have jobs are wondering whether they could be next, and fear is a serious de-motivator. Time will tell whether our local economy and even our political environment will take us in a direction that will catch us up with many of the nation’s improving markets.
There are quite a few factors on the positive side. Interest rates remain at historically low levels, and despite what you may hear, mortgage money is available. There has to be a pent up demand following a few years of market declines, and many prospective buyers are beginning to come out of hiding. Housing affordability is the best it has been in years as prices have declined. A tax credit of up to $8,000 is available to first-time buyers who close by November 30th, and it is possible that the program could be extended. (But don’t wait!). Unit sales have improved in recent months compared to the previous year, and our total listing inventory is declining, both good signs that we are headed back in the direction of a “normal” market (whatever that is). Quite simply stated, never in my 40 years at The Danberry Co. have I seen a better time to buy than right now!
