There are many real estate myths out there that need to be debunked!
Here are five pieces of real estate advice to IGNORE:
MYTH: Spring is the best time to sell.
FACT: The best time to sell is when you're ready. Don't rush a major decision when there are perks to selling your home at all times throughout the year.
MYTH: FSBO saves you money.
FACT: Real estate agents are experienced and knowledgeable about home pricing. A good agent can help you get more ROI on your investment.
MYTH: Higher price = higher offer.
FACT: Pricing your home accurately will generate interest among the right buyers, and may even lead to a competitive bid and higher offer price!
MYTH: Open houses sell homes.
FACT: Open houses can be a helpful tool, but your agent should have a broader marketing strategy that also includes social and digital marketing.
MYTH: The first offer is always the best offer.
FACT: Lots of factors come into play here -- contingencies, closing date, down payment amount. Review all the terms of every offer -- don't just pick the highest offer price.
The truth is, the Winnipeg Real Estate market is ever-changing, and the BEST way to buy or sell a home is however you are comfortable with!
