When you are following what’s occurring within the housing market right now, you know that many people believe the winter months in Milwaukee County aren’t a good time to sell a house.
As realtor.com Senior Economist George Ratiu just lately noted,
“Sellers are usually more reluctant to listing during the colder time of year when the market usually makes a seasonal slowdown.”
Nevertheless, a recent report by ShowingTime reveals how this yr is completely different. Buyer activity is way up in comparison with the identical time the previous year. The report explains,
“The nation’s 12.6% growth in house showings compared to 2018 was the most vital leap in purchaser site visitors throughout the current four-month streak of year-over-year increases. The West Area noticed the best development in activity, with a 23.1% leap – the region’s best within the history of the Displaying Index.”
The rise has spread throughout all 4 areas of the nation, as the graph below shows:
Bottom Line
In Milwaukee County, waiting for the “spring buyers market” may be a mistake this yr. It appears the buyers are already out and seeking to buy.
