Reasons You Should Consider Selling This Fall
If you’re trying to decide when to sell your house, there may not be a better time to list than right now. The ultimate sellers’ market we’re in today won’t last forever. If you’re thinking of making a move, here are four reasons to put your house up for sale sooner rather than later.
1. Your House Will Likely Sell Quickly
2. Buyers Are Willing To Compete for Your House
3. When Supply Is Low, Your House Is in the Spotlight
4. If You’re Thinking of Moving Up, Now May Be the Time

1. Quick Sell: Average days on market is a strong indicator of buyer demand. Homes are selling quickly, buyers have to be more decisive and act fast to submit their offer before other buyers swoop in.
2. Buyer Competition: Sellers are seeing an average of 4.5 offers, and they’re competitive ones. Buyers today know bidding wars are a likely outcome, and they’re coming prepared with their best offer in hand. Receiving several offers on your house means you can select the one that makes the most sense for your situation and financial well-being.
3. Low Supply: One of the most significant challenges for motivated buyers is the current inventory of homes for sale. Though it’s improving, it remains at near-record lows. If you’re looking to take advantage of buyer demand and get the most attention for your house, selling now before more listings come to the market might be your best option.
4. Trade Up: Today, homeowners are gaining a significant amount of wealth through growing equity. You can leverage that equity, plus current low mortgage rates, to power your move now. But these near-historic low rates won’t last forever.
Bottom Line
Don’t delay. The combination of housing supply challenges, low mortgage rates, and extremely motivated buyers gives sellers a unique opportunity this season. If you’re thinking about making a move, reach out to one of our advisor at The Carnahan Group to talk about why it makes sense to list your house now.

Peanut Butter Football Dip
|
|
1/4 cup butter softened
4 ounces cream cheese softened
1 cup peanut butter your choice; crunchy or smooth
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar up to 2 cups if needed
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
Chocolate sprinkles or chocolate chips for the outside of the football
White chocolate or frosting for the football laces
|
- Make sure your cream cheese and butter are room temperature to avoid lumps.
- It’s best if you use a regular store peanut butter (NOT a natural one that requires stirring).
- Make this into a Reese’s Peanut Butter Dip by substituting chopped peanut butter cups for the mini chips.
- Pretzels are great dippers (salty/sweet) but so are apple slices or graham crackers or other cookies.
