Good News: Northeast Home Sales Highest in Nation

The Wellesley real estate market is in excellent condition and now is a great time to buy or sell a house. In fact, a recent report shows that home sales in the Northeast are the highest in the nation.

The report, by the National Association of Realtors, shows that even though home sales in the Northeast have decreased by 3 percent over the past few months, the number of sales in November of 2013 is higher than it was last year, by 6.6 percent. 

The report also details home sales statistics across the United States. Sales in the Western states decreased significantly, by 10.1 percent. The rate in the Midwest has remained stable and the rate in the South has only increased by 1 percent.

According to this report, and what we have seen, the local market is thriving. More and more homes are being listed on the market and selling quickly. These kinds of market conditions are a good sign for both buyers and sellers.

Whether you are looking for your dream home or want to list your Wellesley home for sale, now is the perfect time. Locally, sellers are getting lots of offers and often have several choices when it comes to choosing a buyer. 

But, the report is also good news for buyers, as it tells us that there are many homes being listed, giving buyers lots of options. As you search for a home in this area, you can find one with the features you need and that is the perfect fit for your family.

Since the market is fast and full of options, it is especially important to work with a real estate agent. A local agent can help you find the perfect home and then put an offer on it. When sellers get so many offers, they look for ones that are professionally written and sometimes they are even more likely to work with buyers who are working with an agent.

As a seller, an agent can help you list, show and most importantly, sell your home. An agent will have lots of experience selling all kinds of properties, so you can rest assured that you will be working with an expert.

One of the biggest benefits of working with a real estate agent is that you won’t have to take on the stress and hassle of trying to buy or sell a home yourself. Agents are skilled at selling homes, negotiating prices, working with contracts and closing sales. With this kind of expertise on your team, you will be able to make the change, whether it is buying or selling a home, quickly and easily.
