Buy a Home in Asheville Sell a Home in Asheville
Now more than ever is a great time to make a move to a walkable community not only for your wallet but for your health. Take a look at this new list of walkable neighborhoods in Asheville and the homes now available in each neighborhood by clicking here.

It is a great time to buy a home in Asheville. We are feeling the "housing crunch" creating a buyer's market.

"What exactly does it mean to be in a buyer's market?" you ask. A buyer's market is defined as a market which has more sellers than buyers. Low prices result from this excess of supply over demand. What better time to buy real estate than when there is an excess of properties to choose from and the supply is driving DOWN prices!

Yes, homes are still selling in the current Asheville Real Estate Market. However, as a seller, you have more competition than ever and you can expect to have your home on the market an average of 4-6 months in today's real estate market.

Here are some tips to help you ensure a buyer chooses your home over the competition:

  1. Be realistic about the value TODAY and price it accordingly.
    Review the similar homes on the market in the price range you are considering -- you'll know the advantages other properties have over yours and vice versa and you'll be able to price your home a bit lower than the competition to have the advantage.
  2. Have your home professionally staged.
    It is a statistical fact that homes that have been professionally staged will likely sell faster and for more money. These are two advantages sellers desperately need in a buyer's market.

You have to make a greater effort in today's market to sell your home but it is possible. With a home prepared for the market and priced right, you will achieve success in selling your home.
