"The early bird catches the worm"! If you want to sell your house, this is a great time to put it on the market. Buyers are waiting for listings so why wait for the competition?
Home-buyers, be prepared to move forward if you find a house that fits your needs. While can be difficult to make a decision if you have only seen one or two houses, if you wait you run the risk of not finding another house within your budget. As the spring market progresses, you will have more competition and limited supply will cause prices to go up. Additionally, there is a lot of discussion about mortgage interest rates going up too, further decreasing you purchasing power.
