The Worst Times To Sell Your House In Phoenix

The Worst Times To Sell Your House In Phoenix

Thinking about selling a property you own? Learn about the best and worst times to list your house in Phoenix in our latest post!

Statistically and logically, there are good times and bad times to list a house for sale in Phoenix. If you are able to, avoid listing you home for sale during times when it is less likely you will find a buyer quickly. You may also want to avoid listing it when you are stuck in a difficult situation as you will have no guarantee of it selling. Below, we offer some tips on when listing your house in Phoenix may not be the best choice.

Worst Listing Situations

During Foreclosure

Listing your house to avoid foreclosure is incredibly risky. With a traditional listing, you won’t have a guaranteed sale date, which means the bank could take your property before you’ve had a chance to sell it to a buyer. When you choose to sell your house directly to Valley Home Buyer, you won’t have to wait around, wondering when the house will close. We will provide you with a closing date right away, typically within a few short days depending on your preferred schedule.

For Another Investment Opportunity

Listing your Phoenix house when another opportunity is on the table isn’t always the best idea. By the time a traditional sale has closed, you may have missed your opportunity. If you are an investor, you may be out a property, leaving you without many comparable options on the table. If the missed property was intended for you, you could find yourself settling for something you aren’t nearly as excited about.

If The House Needs Work

Historically, houses that need work before being able to move-in aren’t going to perform as houses that are ready for move-in. Not everybody is looking for a fixer-upper with many repairs. Many people want to be able to move in and be comfortable in the house right away. They don’t want to spend time and money on a house after making such a large purchase. Investors and professional home buyers are usually a better audience for houses that need work. By selling your house directly and away from the Phoenix MLS, you’ll be able to find more buyers with an interest in your property. Plus, with a direct sale, you won’t have to worry about commissions, showings, or when the house will sell.

When You Have Tenants

If you want to list your house with tenants in Phoenix, try to wait until the lease is up. If this isn’t an option, let the tenants know about what is happening, but don’t expect them to be too receptive. When you are trying to show a house, the tenant will need to make sure it’s clean and make themselves scarce. This can be a lot to ask from your tenant, especially if they are not happy about having to leave. Many people who list their house with tenants will offer incentives or even help them relocate to another place in exchange for their cooperation. For many home sellers, they find that selling directly to an investor or cash buyer eliminates all of the frustrations tenants can cause when trying to sell your  property in Phoenix.

You Have To Move Quickly

Life can come at you pretty fast. There are a number of reasons why someone may need to sell their house by a certain time. Maybe you have to move for a new job, maybe you got accepted to a school out of town, or maybe a sudden illness has caused you to want to be closer to your family. No matter your reason for wanting to sell your Phoenix house fast, a direct sale to Valley Home Buyer will offer you a guaranteed closing date while a traditional listing will not. If you need to sell your house fast, selling without an agent or the MLS will give you the peace of mind you need. No matter why you need to sell, you can always count on Valley Home Buyer to make you a fair, no-obligation offer.

In any one of the situations listed above, a direct sale will allow you to sell your house quickly without any hassles or costs. If you need to sell your house fast in Phoenix, consider selling it directly to Valley Home Buyer in order to save yourself time and money on the sale.

Seasonal Advantages

Everyone says spring and summer are the best months for listing a house, but this really depends on your market. A lot of people put their house up for sale over the summer, hoping to be in a new home before the school year starts. If you are selling in the summer, watch out for a flooded market. When you choose to sell your house directly to Valley Home Buyer, you will be able to sell at any time and avoid any costs or delays.
