RMLS Update for Sellers
We are in the "buyers" market!
What does that mean for home sellers? When there are more homes for buyers to choose from, the market becomes more competitive. It becomes critical that your home shows as well as possible (“staging”) and that the asking price is carefully established to be sure it is competitive with other similar homes in the area in the current market.
In a “buyers market”, homes that are “staged” well and priced competitively will sell first and those that are not “staged” well or are not priced competitively will stay on the market longer. If you are considering selling or buying a home and would like assistance in the staging or assessment of your home’s market value please contact us at info@hendricksonteam.com or 612-669-3679.
Absorption Rate is an index used by the National Associations of Realtors® (NAR, www.realtor.org) to describe the condition of the real estate market. It reflects both of the number of homes that are on the market and the average length of time for the homes to sell. Absorption Rate is defined as the number of months it will take for the supply of homes that are available at a given point in time to sell. An increase in the absorption rate remains that there are more homes for sale and they are taking longer to sell. The Absorption Rate will vary by geographical area, by asking price range, and by other variables such as the number of bedrooms and home style.
The National Association of Realtors believes the Absorption Rate defines the overall market condition as described below:
Absorption Rate = Type of Market
2-3 months Seller’s Market
4-5 months Balanced Market
6+ months Buyer’s Market
