Demand
for homes in 2022 is extremely high in Orange County,
CA
With
the current 2022 real estate environment
consisting of lower interest rates, low home
inventory, and high buyer demand, many sellers are receiving multiple
offers on their home, and this makes it an excellent time to sell!
Demand for
homes in Orange County, CA is currently very
high. Home
prices in Orange County, CA have gone up close
to 15% in 2021.That's due in large part to
very high buyer demand because of very
attractive mortgage interest rates. Couple
that with the fact that Orange County, CA is one of the best job
markets in California, plus low crime, great
schools and our great weather. Many buyers in Orange County are competing
against multiple offers on homes because the
supply of quality
inventory is very low. Sounds much more
like a seller's market to me, as well as a
great opportunity for you!

The
three most important factors when
selling your home |
The three most
important factors for selling your home
have changed quite a bit in this market. My
advice a few years ago would have focused more
on getting foot traffic through the door. This
meant lots of weekend Open Houses, advertising
to other agents, getting lots of feedback from
them, and letting the home seller know about things
that need to be done to make the home either
more attractive or better priced. I recall a
few years ago seeing lots of "red
arrows" in the MLS, meaning lots of price
reductions. Today's market in 2022 is
different. Low inventory, low interest rates,
and high buyer demand, means that different
strategies are now needed for selling your
home.
1.
Pricing your home correctly
The key in
today's market is to set a listing price
that will attract many qualified
buyers without over-pricing the home.
The "new normal" in the
market today is buyers sending in offers
over list price and also removing the
appraisal contingency. This means buyers
in many cases will have to bring in
extra cash over and above what the home
will appraise for. It's still possible
to under-price and home or over-price
it. Under-pricing may mean a deluge of
offers, but many of those would be
unqualified or at the edge of what the
buyer could pay. An
over-priced listing may mean little to
no offers, so the home could sit longer
than it needs to. In order to come up
with a suggested price, I will also
factor in what your goals are. Do
you prefer to sell the home mostly
"as is"? Are you willing
to make some cosmetic changes? Or
is your goal to sell for the highest
price possible, which will require both
money and upgrades? The goal is to find
that "sweet spot" where
qualified buyers will send in offers
while meeting your goals.
One of my
first actions will be to provide you with a
detailed Comparative
Market Analysis (CMA) of your home's
current value. This report will consist of
recently sold homes, homes in escrow, and
homes that are currently on the market in your
neighborhood. I will provide you with an
honest estimation of your home's value, along
with a realistic suggested starting pricing range. Click below to get started with a complimentary
evaluation of your home's current market
value. I will send you this report by e-mail.

Home
preparation and setting the stage for
showings
Once
you have decided on the list price, it's
time to get the home ready for showings,
I have several pages below that you can
download that will guide you in getting
the home clean, fresh, and ready to go.
Having great photos and a video virtual
tour are also important aspects of
attracting buyers and agents to your
doorstep. I never skimp here. I always
use a top, professional media firm to
take photos and videos of your property
(buyers will
take notice). Once that is all in place,
I'll enter the home into the MLS
(Multiple Listing Service). and we'll
set a date to go live. I think it's a
great idea to set anticipation by
first putting the home in "Coming
Soon" status. This way, buyers and
agents can see the home with photos, etc
so they will get anxious to visit the
home when it goes live. Typically we'll
want to go live on a weekend when most
buyers are free to visit homes.

3.
Navigating
through offers and picking a
"winner"
The
third most important step is navigating
through several offers and being able to
see the full picture of each one of
them. Price is of course important, but
in many scenarios, we will be
countering several of the offers on
price by asking for "highest and
best" price. There are many other
factors like how much are they putting
down? How much EMD (Earnest Money
Deposit)? Which mortgage company are
they using? Are they all cash or using
an FHA loan? Are they willing to remove
the appraisal contingency? It takes careful analysis
of each offer to see which buyers will
pass "go" and make it to final
step. In the end, the goal is to
pick a very solid, willing and able
buyer to open Escrow with. .

Of course, there are many other
steps and factors
that are important. like successfully
getting through a home inspection, termite
report, request for repairs, feedback from buyers who have visited your
home, etc. Call me at (949) 290-3263 and I will be glad to
discuss all of the rest with you!
