LiveMARYLAND Seller Tip: Signs That You Should Sell This Spring
So, you feel like it’s time to move, but you keep asking yourself, is now the right time? After all, there’s so much history packed inside those four walls — not to mention all of your stuff. Here are a few reasons you may want to consider making a move this year...
You’ve outgrown your home
You’ve grown—but your home hasn’t. Outgrowing a home is a natural progression in life… are you expecting a child or even another relative? Do you feel cramped during the holidays, or wish you had space to entertain? Do you feel like you’re busting at the seams, or need more storage? Or, are you happy with your home, but wish you were closer to friends or family? Whatever your situation, if your home and/or neighborhood no longer fit your needs, the time is probably right to sell and find a new place that’s a better fit for your lifestyle.
Your home’s upkeep is too much.
It may be time to consider downsizing if your to-do list seems too long, or you no longer use most of the rooms in your house. If you are looking for a more manageable home, or just want to have more freedom (and less house to maintain), you could benefit from selling and downsizing to a smaller place, or a home with some of the maintenance included, such as a condo or landominium.
You’re unhappy with your location
Has traffic gotten bad in your area? If your job has changed, does your home’s location no longer make sense? Has the neighborhood grown too commercial? If so, selling your house might be the best move. Spend some time researching communities in your area, and hop in the car and explore each one with your loved ones. Be sure to take into account school locations, commutes to work, highway access and other factors before you opt to buy your next property.
You Want a brand new home with all of the latest updates
Are you tired of your home’s outdated features and design? Do you find yourself dreaming of a home with an open floor plan or the latest smart home technology? Or do you just want to design and build your dream home from the ground up? Sellingl your house to buy a new construction property might be an option to consider. If you get in early enough, you can customize the home exactly to your liking.
