Could This Be the Year to Sell Your House?

Thinking about selling your home? This might just be the perfect time to make your move! According to a recent NerdWallet survey, 15% of people are planning to buy a home this year. That’s the highest percentage ever recorded in this survey (check out the graph below).

What This Means for You
For the past few years, the percentage of potential buyers has been holding steady between 9-11%. This recent jump signals something important—buyer demand isn’t going anywhere. In fact, it’s picking up speed.

Now, we’re not saying we’re about to see the frenzy of 2020-2021, but this increase means more activity is on the horizon compared to last year. Many buyers who hit pause on their plans are ready to jump back in. Maybe they’ve gained confidence in the market, finally saved enough, or simply can’t wait any longer—whatever the reason, they’re ready to buy in 2024.

Buyers Are Already Looking
Another key stat from the NerdWallet survey? Over half (54%) of these potential buyers are already house hunting online. That’s a strong indicator that many of them will be actively searching this spring—prime homebuying season.

So, if you’ve been considering selling, now’s the time to start prepping. The right real estate team (like us!) can help you stage, price, and market your home effectively, making sure it stands out to the eager buyers entering the market.
