Warming up for the busy spring housing market
Even though it’s the dead of winter, local realtors are getting ready for the busy spring market.
Messina & Associates Realtor Deanna Bennet says to expect the housing market to get busy in the next few months. With that in mind Deanna says 2025 will begin to feel like a traditional market.
So what can you do now to get a heard start on buying a home? Find a lender and start going to open houses.
If you are looking to sell and looking to buy Deanna says her and her associates start off with suggesting decluttering, then they’ll look at getting a stager, then getting ready to market your house. Deanna says that marketing your house is different than living in it every day.
Now for Building Deanna says this year she’s seeing more and more people say they want to build their own house. “There’s a few lots open around [Duluth] and those are going quickly,” says Deanna.
If you are looking to build, be prepared for a longer process because sometimes it can become a two year process.
