Is it Time to Sell Your Home?

Sometimes homeowners may get a inkling when it's time to sell and other times, they can get an epiphany that lets them know they shouldn't wait one minute longer. If you've been on the fence about selling your home, look at what you may have missed.

Some telltale signs that can let you know it's time to sell include:

• Receiving a job transfer. If a household member is expecting a job transfer in the near future, it is safe to say that the time for selling may have arrived. While renting may be an option worth exploring, selling your home is the typical way to avoid taking care of two houses.
 
• Calling contractors for estimates. If you have wanted extra space, updates or a conversion, contractors may be on their way to give bids. Noticing where your current home falls short can be one of the first steps towards house hunting. Instead of putting big bucks into your current home, it could be wise to look elsewhere.
 
• Continuously checking homes for sale. When real estate sites and home search tools are what you gravitate towards online, it may be time to admit you're ready for a change. Looking at homes can be a hobby for some, but if you begin envisioning yourself in these homes it wouldn't hurt to look into selling your current residence.

Selling your house can be a big decision. Changes in our lives can be the catalyst for making us sell; are you ready to put your home on the market?
