As we begin another year, one of your goals may include selling your home. If you’re thinking about doing that, now would be a great time.
The following are the three main reasons:
1. Supply is still lacking. We did notice two trends in 2021: a low supply of homes for sale and supply chain issues. These trends are predicted to continue in 2022, which is good news for sellers because a low supply means higher prices.
2. The housing market will continue to grow in value. After another strong year of appreciation, 2022 may see a slight slowdown. Homes will still increase in value, but the rate of appreciation is expected to slow based on predictions from the National Association of Realtors.
3. Interest rates are still low but rising. Today’s average interest rate on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage is in the low 3% range. However, the Federal Reserve recently announced that it will wind down its bond purchases, which will cause rates to increase across the board. This may cause even more buyers to enter the market now to try and secure a home like yours before higher rates make it less affordable.
