Deciding to sell your home can be a big decision! It is smart to weigh the pros and cons first. If you answer yes to any of the following questions, it is time to start thinking of selling your home.
Has your family grown?
When first buying a home, you will pick a house that fits your needs. But, as you grow your family, you can easily grow out of your first home! Instead of feeling cramped and uncomfortable, consider how much easier life would be with more space or more bedrooms.
Do you have significant equity in your home?
Equity is the difference between what your home is worth in the current market and how much you owe on the mortgage. If you have a significant amount in equity, this will make it easier for you to put more down or make upgrades to your next house.
Have your needs changed for your home?
Are you now working from home when you used to work at another location? With the changing work environment, it might be a new challenge for you to find a space to work during the day at home. If you find yourself in this situation, its a great time to consider your options.
Is it a sellers market?
Take advantage of the fluctuating market and sell your home when its worth more. This strategy will give you the biggest return on your homes sale.
Does your home need a lot of repairs that you are not willing or able to do?
If you feel that you are drowning in repairs and that you can not afford to fix your home, it is okay to sell it. Many homeowners do not realize that their house does not have to be in perfect condition in order to sell it. Keep in mind that any repairs and updates that need to be done will be considered in pricing the home and buyer's will weigh how much needs to be done for the house when making offers. But, by selling your home when you can't afford to fix it, you are giving yourself the opportunity to move on and find something that is more affordable to you. If selling your home makes sense in paying off your mortgage, it is something to consider.
