There is no doubt, the U.S. housing market is booming. In April, 47% of U.S. homes were on the market for less than a week before going pending. More than three quarters (76%) were on the market less than a month. That trend is reflected in Pennsylvania, where according to Pennsylvania Association of Realtors, the median single-family home sale price increased 11% and closed sales are up 38%. "Many of our new residents have been able to sell their home in 24 hours to a few days, making now an ideal time to move to our vibrant senior living community," says Maris Grove Personal Moving Consultant Jan Schechter. "It is the most robust market we have seen in decades." Schechter's tips for a successful home sale in today's robust real estate market: An empty house sells just as well as a home filled with furniture and stuff. If you need to paint use cool colors of grey and white. It is the most popular color now. Provide a pre-inspection of the house so buyers can see the condition and make a quick decision & make an offer. Highlight outdoor space set up with colorful pillows and plants. Since the pandemic, everyone wants inviting outdoor space. Highlight hardwood floors (remove rugs) – buyers love and appreciate HW floors. List your house now!! Don't wait, we don't know how long this amazing market will last.
