\"Wondering<\/p>\n

If you put a pause on your home search because you weren\u2019t sure where you\u2019d go once you sold your house, it might be a good time<\/a> to get back into the market. That\u2019s because today\u2019s market is undergoing a shift<\/a>, and the supply of homes for sale is increasing as a result. That means you may have a better chance of finding a home that will meet your current needs. Here are some options to consider.<\/span><\/p>\n

Buying an Existing Home Can Give You That Lived-in Charm<\/strong><\/h4>\n

According to the National Association of Realtors<\/em> (NAR), the supply of existing homes<\/a> (a home that\u2019s been previously owned) has steadily increased since the beginning of the year. The graph below indicates inventory levels are rising, and that\u2019s largely due to more homes<\/a> coming onto the market and the pace of sales slowing:<\/p>\n

\"Wondering<\/a><\/p>\n

As the graph shows, if you\u2019re looking for a home with lived-in charm, supply is rising, and that\u2019s great news for you.<\/p>\n

Danielle Hale, Chief Economist for realtor.com<\/em>, gives insight<\/a> into why more homeowners are listing their homes and adding to the growing supply of existing homes today:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cHome sellers in many markets across the country continue to benefit from rising home prices and fast-selling homes. That\u2019s prompted a growing number of homeowners to sell homes this year compared to last, giving home shoppers much needed options. We\u2019ve seen more homes come up for sale this year compared to last year <\/strong>. . .\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

There are several benefits to buying an existing home. Many buyers want to purchase a home with history, and the character of older houses is hard to reproduce. Existing homes can often be part of an established neighborhood featuring mature landscaping that can give you additional privacy and boost your curb appeal.<\/p>\n

Plus, timing can be a consideration as well. With an existing home, you can move in based on the timeline you agree to with the sellers, rather than building a new home and waiting for construction to finish. This is something to keep in mind, especially if you need to move sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n

Just remember, while more sellers are listing their homes, supply is still low overall. That means you\u2019ll have more options to choose from as you search for your next home, but you\u2019ll still need to be prepared for a fast-moving market.<\/p>\n

Purchasing a Newly Built or Under Construction Home Means Brand New Everything<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Census <\/em>data<\/a> shows there\u2019s an increasing number of new homes available for sale. It includes homes that are under construction, soon to be completed, and fully built. As the graph below highlights, the supply of new homes for sale has also grown this year:<\/p>\n

\"Wondering<\/a>When building a new home, you can create your perfect living space and customize it to your lifestyle. That could mean everything from requesting energy efficient options to specific design features. Plus, you\u2019ll have the benefit of all new appliances, windows, roofing, and more. These can all help lower your energy costs<\/a>, which can add up to significant savings over time.<\/p>\n

The lower maintenance that comes with a newer home is another great advantage. When you have a new home, you likely won\u2019t have as many little repairs to tackle, like leaky faucets, shutters to paint, and other odd jobs around the house. And with new construction, you\u2019ll also have warranty options that may cover portions of your investment for the first few years.<\/p>\n

Keep in mind, purchasing a new home could mean waiting a considerable amount of time before you can move. Robert Dietz, Chief Economist and Senior Vice President for Economics and Housing Policy at the National Association of Home Builders <\/em>(NAHB), explains<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cNew single-family home inventory remained elevated at a 7.7 months\u2019 supply. . . . However, only 8.3% of new home inventory is completed and ready to occupy. The remaining have not started construction (25.9%) or are currently under construction<\/strong>.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

That\u2019s an important factor when making your decision and one you should discuss with a trusted real estate advisor. They\u2019ll help you think through all the pros and cons of both new and existing homes to help you arrive at your best decision.<\/p>\n

Bottom Line<\/strong><\/h3>\n

With the supply of homes for sale rising, you have options for your next home no matter what your preferences are. If you have questions or want help deciding what\u2019s best for you, let\u2019s connect and start the conversation today.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
