The housing market has a mind of its own. It ebbs and flows with the seasons and hardly stays put for long. So naturally, you might be wondering what’s in store for us this spring. Here’s what you should keep in mind when planning to sell your house this season.
1. There Are Still Buyers Out There
It’s true that mortgage rates have risen and remain high. And yes, that has caused some buyers to pause until the prices come down. But that doesn’t apply across the board. There is still a multitude of reasons people are buying homes today. For many buyers, a higher mortgage is just a hurdle to jump over on the path of homeownership. It won’t stop them from returning to the market after waiting for long periods.
