Could this be DISCOUNT DECEMBER for Milwaukee Real Estate buyers?
Could this be DISCOUNT DECEMBER for Milwaukee Real Estate buyers?
Year end Bargains? Yes!
When it comes to real estate, this could be a December full of them. Not a bad
thing for buyers!!! In the Metro Milwaukee area, December has always been
a rough month for home owners that are thinking of selling - as a “what should
I do?” month. They are thinking “it’s going to be a long winter in Milwaukee ,” especially
after the last few weeks of inclement weather. Sellers are facing taxes being
due, home expenses are going up, outdoor work has been left unfinished and
possible painting and concrete work hasn’t been completed because of the early
cold season. These are all good things for a buyer, as these items could help
with prices coming down or to negotiate when purchasing. It may not be the case
with all listings, but the odds are in your favor.
If a listing does come on
the market at this time of year here in the Metro Milwaukee area, it is often
because a seller truly needs to sell their home. Most often home owners that
are not selling out of necessity will wait until after the New Year to list. After
the first of the year it is a
whole new market with new buyers. With January comes buyers with new goals to
purchase a home. These are people that were not even thinking about buying a
home in 2014. If you are one of those people considering beginning your home
search, call me, Bob Arnold, to help you get started! After the first of the
year the market gets very active, buyers are anxious, and sellers will start to
push pricing up on new listings. This is due to a continually increasing market
that has seen consistent growth over the last few years.
The US Commerce department
reported, for the third straight month, that October single family home sale
prices increased. National single family homes sales are up 15.4 percent from
last year at this same time.
