Wrap Up:


Sellers: 

June reminded us that it is still a great time to be a seller. For the first time in months, the booming sales numbers rose above the sales for this month last year, which is a great indication in the strength of the market. However, new listings were also significant for June, so it is continually important to strategize how to make your property stand out. if your home has been on the market now may be the time to have a discussion with your agent about the best way to get buyers to zero in. Whether that means a price adjustment or advertising strategy, now is the time to talk game plan with a pro listing agent today.
