3 Reasons to Sell Your Home in Annandale, Centreville, Arlington Virginia This Fall

Summer is widely recognized as a great time to sell your Northern Virginia home given the weather, the kids being out of school and generally, more time to devote to moving. However, what many Northern Virginia homeowners don't notice is that fall is equally as great a time to sell!

The weather is getting cooler and with the holidays just around the corner, you'll want to move now to avoid that holiday hustle and bustle later. If you've been thinking about selling your home in Annandale, Arlington, Fairfax City, Centreville or Mount Vernon, here are three solid reasons to do so this season.

Homebuyers are motivated
When compared with homebuyer traffic over the past year, including this past spring, there are more motivated homebuyers in the market now than there have been at any other time. Not only are these local homebuyers ready to move, but they are able to purchase a home which can make the process much more enjoyable.

The process will be smooth
One of the reasons many home sellers shy away from making a move is the amount of time it takes to close. As banks require more paperwork to obtain a mortgage, there can be obstacles, most of which can take long during the holiday season. But you're in luck! Selling your home before the holidays roll around can bring about a smoother, quicker transaction. 

You have less competition among other sellers
While inventory is slowly rising, the supply of homes is still historically low. What does that mean as a Northern Virginia home seller? It means that for the number of homebuyers in the market, there are not enough homes to meet demand. Not only is this great news for home prices, but also for sellers as your home will be allowed to take the spotlight.

Many sellers are also coming out of an equity dilemma and are now able to sell their homes— so don't delay! Your competition among sellers is low now, but won't be for long!
