Gearing Up To Sell A Home In Tallahassee

OK, the new year is officially behind us and that means many homeowners will be preparing to sell a home in Tallahassee.

They have been on hold, likely waiting for the Seminoles to finish their perfect season with the national championship in Pasadena (which they did :)).

So what will the smartest home sellers do to beat the market and get their home sold right away in 2014?

Long term readers of the Tallahassee Real Estate Blog likely know that we maintain a great resource for home sellers on our site.

So knowing that we have 51 articles on how to sell a home, is there anything different in 2014 that you should know?

The simple answer is "yes and no."

Yes, something is different, but "no" there really isn't anything else you need to know (our Home Seller's Resource Page has it all).

Home Sellers Face A Transition Market In 2014

For most homeowners desiring to move in 2014, the Tallahassee real estate market is transitioning from a buyers market to one that has reached market equilibrium. In fact, many price ranges will actually be dealing with shortages and thus will require buyers to compete for listings.

This makes understanding market conditions for YOUR HOME so much more important in 2014 than it was in previous years.

Of course, understanding current market conditions is covered in great detail on our Home Seller's Resource Page, and that is why homeowners who take the time to prepare and "do it right" will be in better position than their competition in 2014.
