Spring is Here! At Least the Price Increases Are!
2016 is starting off on an interesting note. Inventory of Homes is way down across the board, so price increases are taking hold.
Now does that mean its too late for buyer s to get into the game?
Not Really, say most experts, since interest rates have stayed stable, there are some great deals still out there, but the Seller Market is Approaching Fast!
So great advice would be to buy now while the going is good, even though there are fewer homes to pick form.
Call "Dino Micheli Realty" at 847-922-4241 to find your dream home!

5 REASONS TO LIST YOR HOME NOW!
Thinking of selling your home? No need to wait for the spring market! Here are 5 reasons why you should list now.
1. Don't wait until Spring to list your home--do it now.
With inventory levels dropping you face far less competition to sell your home. Buyers are in the market and are seeking more quality inventory. Inventory shortages are across the board in all price categories, so don't second guess whether there is an abundance of homes on the market in your price range. The prospects for a strong housing
market continue into 2016.

market continue into 2016.
Consumer confidence has returned to pre-recession levels. Despite adverse winter weather conditions, REALTORS® report strong activity and steady foot traffic. People are stepping up their online searches as well. Less competition means more exposure for you as individuals begin their search process online through the various real estate search engines. Homebuyers in 2016 are likely to be a combination of both repeat buyers, first-time buyers and boomerang buyers who have been renting since they lost their homes due to default. Buyers are making their move to purchase before interest rates inch higher.
3. There is less competition.
Spring typically brings more sellers to market. Be early to this real estate party versus late. Get your house listed on the market now to beat the flurry of sellers waiting until spring to list their home for sale. The longer you procrastinate means you will be selling alongside a greater number of sellers within your price range when the weather breaks. As the economy continues to strengthen in 2016, there will also be a substantial increase in new single-family construction to meet the rise in household formations.
4. Move on to that new chapter in your life.
More than likely you have been evaluating your options for some time now and this is not a quick spur of the moment decision to sell. Make your move this winter so that you can focus on other things this spring and enjoy the outdoors! Better yet, lock in those interest rates before they move higher. The 30-year fixed rate mortgage averaged 4.125% in January. Predictions are they could reach 5.25% in late 2016 or early 2017 which is a full percentage point higher. That means several more thousand dollars more you will need to pay over the full-term on your mortgage at a higher interest rate level.
5. Price is king in this market.
Pricing your home correctly on the front end is key and critical to getting your home sold. Your target should be getting a strong offer for you home. Now, more than ever you need the special skills and expertise of a REALTOR® who can help guide you through the process of pricing your home. Have you done any updates to your home recently? Make sure to factor those in.
Dino Micheli Realty is the company to make it happen for you!

Selling in Winter is a Great Idea!
Selling in Winter brings out a good number of discussions. In fact, is there ever a better time to sell? Summer is so much nicer and much easier to sell, right?
Well, the answer depends:
1.) Do you mind having your home on the market in inclement weather?
2.) Will your house show as nice as in summer?
3.) The number of showings will be much less in winter
4.) People going out to see homes in winter are much more serious in buying.
5.) People in summer have a hobby in just seeing homes, not serious in buying.
I can come up with many more things to consider, but what I like most is that, yes, you will have less showings in winter, but buyers who go out in bad weather are much more serious and motivated to buy quickly.
A seller might miss a great opportunity to sell when inventory is low and less competition than in summer when everyone starts to list. Also, you might have a better chance to get a higher price.
Discuss this with Dino @ 847-922-4241 to see what fits your situation better.

Spring Is Coming, Believe It or Not!
I know it might not look like spring is coming, but it is, at least in the real estate world.
Time to think about getting your home ready to sell, remember what you are looking for in a home and think like a buyer. Look around as if you saw your house for the first time. It's amazing the things you see that need to be update, fixed, painted or whatever it takes to make it attractive to a buyer.
If you need help, contact Dino to visit your home and give his professional opinion on what to do. Not all improvements will add a lot of value to a home and sometimes the cost is more than it is worth.
You fix a home up not to be perfect, if so, you would not want to move then, but to fix it up so that it will sell faster, but not necessarily at a much higher price.
