Market Update 2013 Residential Listings Percent Sold

Hello everyone this is Brad Hammarlund, I am a Realtor with Exit Homevets Realty in Killeen TX. I work with both Buyers and Sellers. I help people look for homes for sale in Killeen TX, homes for sale in Harker Heights TX, homes for sale in Copperas Cove TX, and my service are is the greater Killeen-FT Hood area.

 
This is our current real estate markets sales as you can see so far there are more houses being sold than last year by this time. I pulled the numbers off of the Fort Hood multiple listing service. What does this mean to you? That our market is picking up just like it was predicted so if you are wanting to sell your home our market is active and you will have a better chance in finding the right buyer for your property. If you are a buyer and this trend keeps up this can drive the prices up as the inventory of homes are diminished, there can be multiple offers on homes and create a bidding war to purchase a home. Now is the time to act whichever side of the transaction you are on, If you are thinking about listing your home now is the time to get it on the market before school lets out and more buyers enter the market so your home will be available when hey start their home search, and if you are a buyer now is the time to purchase a house while there is a good supply of homes on the market.

With the Temp on the rise things to think about.

Hello everyone this is Brad Hammarlund with Exit Homevets Realty in Killeen, TX. I work with both home sellers and buyers looking for home for sale in Killeen TX, homes for sale in Copperas Cove TX, homes for sale in Harker Heights TX, homes for sale in Nolanville TX.

With the temperature on the rise there are a few things to think about, Severe Weather, Gardens, and spring projects.
With the chance for severe weather you should always make sure you have a home emergency kit ready just in case. Things I like to keep in my kit are, First aid kit, flash light, bottled water, snacks, dry food, batteries, diapers, formula, wet wipes, water filter, camp stove, important papers, spare clothes, and something for self defense.
Now is the time to make sure you gardens are planted, fertilized, and  a set watering schedule.
Also before it gets to hot now is the time for spring projects. whether it is organizing the garage or shed, building a deck, gazebo, or a whole backyard retreat. Now is the time to get started before the temperature becomes unbearable.
Always remember to stay hydrated and make sure you have a detailed plan before you get started, this will make sure that you stay on track and that you will avoid delays trying to figure out what your next step is.

Time to start Looking at homes.

Hello everyone this is Brad Hammarlund, I am a Realtor with Exit Homevets Realty in Killeen TX. I work with both Buyers and Sellers. I help people look for homes for sale in Killeen TX, homes for sale in Harker Heights TX, homes for sale in Copperas Cove TX, and my service are is the greater Killeen-FT Hood area.

It is the best time to start your home search, with the summer selling season right around the corner now is the time to find a home with less of a chance of multiple offers on the property. One of the homes I just put under contract this week had 2 competing offers submitted on it and that hinders the ability to properly negotiate the lowest price for the home buyer.

So if you are tired of throwing away your rent money each and every month and decide to invest it in your future and buy a better home for less than what you are currently paying in rent, Give me a call so we can start your home search. We have a large inventory of new homes and preexisting homes in the Fort Hood Area Association Of Realtors multiple listing service, and I am sure there is one just right for you.

Schedule a time for a free home buyers consultations.
