Summer is officially upon us. Unofficially, Memorial Day marked the start of the start of summer and with it comes increased home sales. Our local market in the Upper Peninsula is heating up. There are more buyers than sellers currently, which puts us in a sellers market. The properties that are moving are going fast, sometimes the may go under contract in the same day. This means that if you are thinking about listing your home in the near future, now would be a great time. As a seller, anytime you can have more eyeballs in front of your property, the better it is. As a buyer, do your homework ahead of time (i.e. pre-approval, financing, etc) and when you’re ready to make an offer, it will be considered more seriously. Also, if you’ve been on the fence about listing your home, now would be a great time to jump in.

For a large number of Americans, Memorial Day weekend is thought of as a relaxing 3 day weekend filled with parties, barbecues, trips and other fun activities. Memorial Day (Monday, May 27th this year) is actually a federal holiday we celebrate to remember the people who died while serving in our nation’s armed forces. Our freedom was not free and because of those who’ve paid the ultimate sacrifice with their life defending our nation, we are able to relax and enjoy this particular weekend each year. Thank you to all of the men and women who’ve served and sacrificed for our nation!
