The Spring Housing Market in Phoenix

Screen Shot 2019-03-05 at 11.05.36 AM.png

With winter behind us (don’t say that to anyone from a cold weather state…ha ha) we are heading into what appears to be yet another busy season here in the Phoenix area.  We’ve depleted a little more of our inventory than we did in January and it doesn’t appear we are stopping anytime soon.  Here at Team EvoAZ, we had 10 closings in the month of February totaling $2.9M and it looks like March is ramping up to be a great month too.  Sellers, you need to continue to be realistic if you want to sell.  Buyers, contact us to begin before the real rush hits in a few weeks and there is more competition in the market for you.  Text my cell at: 480-250-0023.

Ready to Sell Your Home? Know What You are Choosing

Capture.jpg

When selling your home, you have many options.  One of those options is an investor.  Investors come in all shapes and sizes and call themselves by many different names.  Whatever they choose to call themselves, they are still investors, and as such, pay lower than market value for your home.  After all, if they weren’t going to make money on it, they wouldn’t buy it.

My sister has a friend who recently chose to sell her house to one of those investors.  She needed to move quickly, and so she found the choose-your-own-closing-date, no-hassle, no-open-houses, no-blah-blah-blah option appealing.  Being a previous realtor and now in the lending industry, she was not shocked that they offered her approximately 80% of the home’s market value.  What was shocking was when in the 10-day inspection period, you know the period where the buyer can back out for any reason or no reason at all, they came back with a list of items they wanted repaired and the cost to repair them, what they called “deferred maintenance” of $90,000 to replace the roof, the AC, and other various repairs including the cost to update.  Thankfully, because of her previous experience, she was able to negotiate that list and ended up paying $16,000 for the deferred maintenance.  That amount came off of their original purchase offer, so she ended up selling her house to them for much less than she could have sold it otherwise.

When selling your home,  it is important to know what you are choosing, and have someone who knows the ins and outs of negotiating a purchase contract and who has your best interest at heart.
