Like the majority of homeowners right now, you are sitting tight even though you would prefer to be living somewhere else. Yet your current home no longer meets your needs or desires. You have hopes and dreams about a new home but, you don’t see a path for how to make it happen.
What if a path and a plan could be created?
My clients have done a variety of things. I’ll share a few of their stories to get the juices flowing! Those serious about finding their new home have been able to find it. Some bought a new home before they sold. Some found their next home during the process of selling their current one. Others sold their house and created an interim plan of temporary housing and storage, (okay, not convenient, but if you ask them now, they will tell you it was worth it 100 times over!). And my most recent seller cashed out and followed her long-time dream of traveling overseas for six months before returning to shop for her new home. So there are many ideas, options, and solutions.
Everyone who’s selling knows exactly where they’re going, right?
Here’s an interesting observation I made after going on the broker tour in Fairfield last week. Click the image below to listen!
Okay, I might have some options on where to go, but there are more things to consider.

I am prepared to discuss your plans and how to get you there. Call me today for a no-obligation consultation.

Like so many others, you’re tired of shelling out money for taxes, maintenance, insurance, and a mortgage for a home that is no longer best serving your needs. Maybe you’ve been waiting on your move due to uncertainty about changing market conditions or your own personal or professional landscape.
You, like many others feel it doesn’t make sense to continue living in a house that is no longer aligned with your lifestyle and current priorities. Your opportunities and needs have changed. Maybe you don’t have the rooms you need for peace, quiet, focus, exercise, or whatever it may be. You’re stressed by the interruptions from kids or dogs. Or maybe you have wasted space that you no longer use. Your commuting needs have changed, and you need or long for different surroundings. Maybe you are simply in need of something new. You have hopes and dreams about a new home but, you are not sure about the path for how to make it happen.
Your home is your ticket to ride!
As a homeowner, you may be surprised to find out how much equity you have available to you. At the end of 2021 homeowners with a mortgage across the United States gained an average of $57,000 in equity since the end of 2020, with some homeowners gaining $90,000 or more!

A jump in equity means you can cash out and go where you have been yearning to be!
But you’re thinking, “Why would I want to buy now when there is nothing available, and home prices are up?”.
While it is true that the inventory of homes for sale is at an all time low, what most people don’t realize is that this inventory is made up of mostly new listings! The average market time is short, so there is a fresh selection of homes on the market every day.
Appreciation is forecast to continue for years to come.
More good news: Appreciation is predicted to continue, offering continued equity growth in your new home. Experts forecast additional equity gains of 24 to 63 percent by 2026. So it makes sense to get into your new home ASAP and start enjoying your equity growth there while you embrace your new lifestyle.
You don’t want to sell when the 10-year Treasury and inflation are going up? History shows that home value appreciation has consistently stayed ahead of inflation since the 1970s.
Homeownership has been a hedge against inflation for decades.
But like most would-be home sellers right now, you’re worried about the craziness of the current market, the stress of preparing your home for sale, and the question of where to go once you sell and cash out. This is totally understandable, and everyone who has recently sold and achieved their goals had the same concerns.
This winter provides the perfect storm for you to sell!
Yet this winter market actually presents the perfect storm for you to sell. Not only is your equity at a high, but so is the buyer demand for your house. There are many serious buyers looking for a home right now. At the same, time you will benefit from the low interest rates seeming to have already peaked and buyers getting used to the ‘new normal‘. Add to this the perk of having almost zero competition for your house!
