KEY TIPS FOR BUYING OR SELLING IN TODAY’S MARKET
For Buyers:
As you prepare for the spring home buying season, taking time now to understand your financial options can be an important step. Buyers in New Hampshire may have access to grant programs and other resources that can help with down payments and closing costs.
We recently spoke with Cathy Murray, SVP Mortgage Loan Officer at Mascoma Bank, about two grant programs currently available to New Hampshire home buyers.

Connecting with a lender early in the process can also be valuable, as they can help walk you through available programs and financing options as you prepare to buy.
For Sellers:
As we move closer to the spring market, many homeowners begin thinking about preparing their property for sale. Taking time now to focus on presentation, staging, and small repairs can make a meaningful difference in how your home is received by buyers.
Early preparation often includes decluttering, addressing deferred maintenance, and making thoughtful updates that help highlight the home’s best features. These steps can help ensure your property is ready when buyer activity begins to increase in the coming months.
For homeowners who would like guidance on how to prepare, we will be hosting a Spring Home Prep, Staging, and Selling Workshop on March 19 focused on preparing your home for the spring real estate market. You can learn more and register here.
