As we head into the final months of 2024, it’s time to start thinking about what’s next for homeowners in 2025. Real estate is all about preparation, and if you’re considering selling your home, now is the perfect time to get ahead. With mortgage rates on the decline and experts projecting a busy 2025 market reminiscent of the hustle and bustle of 2022, the key to success is simple: prepare early.
Smart agents and savvy sellers don’t wait for the new year to make a move; they start planning six months in advance. Here are a few compelling reasons why this is critical:
Post-Election Rebound: The 2024 election will be behind us, and many people who delayed their moving decisions due to political uncertainty will be ready to act. With attention shifting back to real estate, you can expect an influx of motivated buyers.
Favorable Interest Rates: As the economy continues to stabilize, mortgage rates are expected to decrease. Lower rates mean more active buyers in the market, eager to make a move. This environment creates a perfect storm for sellers, allowing you to command higher offers as competition among buyers increases.
Chicago’s Spring Real Estate Surge: In Chicago, real estate activity always surges in the spring, especially since many leases come to an end in March. Buyers looking to move into new homes before summer are particularly motivated, making spring the best time to sell.
The hottest time in real estate is from February, just after the Super Bowl, through Memorial Day. This small window is when the most deals are made, which is why strategizing for the spring season now is essential. To ensure you’re positioned for success, start working with a team like The ZIP Group, who are already prepared for the upcoming busy season.
