I like to do what I tell people that I am going to do. I tell all of my clients that, if I have their phone number, they should expect me to check in every few months just to see how everything is going and see if there is anything that I can do to add value to their world.
I love how many people believe me and take the time to update me with what is going on with them, and maybe even see what is going on in my world.
I still have people that don’t seem to understand why I am calling them. I believe that the best thing that I can do is show you that you matter to me, not just as a means to buying and selling homes. I love calling people 3 months and 6 months after they have bought a house to check in. Most people believe (correctly) that most realtors are going to forget about you after they help you. I love showing that I really do want to stay connected.
I realize that I am calling during the work day and that you might not have much time. I still love to hear what is going on with you.
Now to the market:
If you are thinking about selling, the numbers say to list now instead of waiting for Spring weather. Here is why I say that:
First, two numbers from January of this year:
There were 11.7% more homes for sale in January 2019 (3,478) vs January 2018 (3,114)
Pending Home Sales for the Month of January was down 18.3% for the month of January 2019 (856) vs January 2018 (1,048)
That means that there is already more competition (larger supply) and less buyers (smaller demand). Historically, the Spring months are the largest competition (supply) of the entire year.
What does that mean to you? It means that if you are waiting to list your house, you are also waiting to have more competition. List now and have fewer houses to compete with instead.
I love doing what I do. I love looking at the market, and I love building relationships with the people that I get to help. Let me know how I can help you. Call me today. You can reach me at 515.639.0047 or RyanLynch@KW.com. I am good at what I do, and I want to help you.
