KEY TIPS FOR BUYING OR SELLING IN TODAY’S MARKET
For Buyers:
As we move toward the spring market, activity typically increases. Preparation now allows you to move forward thoughtfully when the right property becomes available. If you are planning to purchase this year, consider taking a few steps now:
- Clearly define your must-haves, nice-to-haves, and deal breakers (even better, write them down).
- Interview and assemble your home buying team, including a real estate advisor and lender who align with your goals and communication style.
- Review your finances and understand the difference between pre-qualification and pre-approval.
Taking time to prepare early allows you to make informed decisions and move forward with clarity, particularly when a property is generating significant interest.
For Sellers:
If you’ve checked your home’s value online recently, you may be wondering how much weight to give that number.
Online home value tools can be a useful starting point, but it is reasonable to question how much you can trust the estimate you are seeing. These tools rely on broad data sets that may be outdated or missing important property details, and they cannot account for condition, updates, layout, or neighborhood-specific factors.
While they may show how quickly homes went under contract, they do not capture real-time local dynamics such as buyer interest levels, number of offers, or how negotiations unfolded. An in-person market valuation incorporates property-specific observations and current local data to provide more reliable information when preparing to sell.
Each month, we host free educational workshops for home buyers and sellers in New London. If you are looking to deepen your understanding of the buying or selling process in New Hampshire, these sessions are a helpful place to start.
