As I have mentioned once or twice I am not a winter person. I have gathered from many of you that winter is not our favorite season in general. Which brings me to ask the question, since this winter is warmer than the previous 2 are we happier, are we more hopeful, are we spending a little more, doing more and how does that affect our economy?
The mild temperatures may not be related to the trend I am seeing but I am certain it is not hurting it either. Last January Lawrence had a total of 40 homes that went under contract. This January we will be have already recorded 57 homes under contract but there most likely a few transaction yet to be submitted. I am not jumping up and down declaring that housing or the economy is booming but I can’t help believing that we are starting to feel a little more positive due to the weather.
Instead of staying curled up in our homes we are now spending time outdoors, dreaming of the future and fantasizing about what we can do with our yards in just a few weeks. So why not start house shopping today? From what I am seeing it appears that many people have.
So if you have been thinking of putting your home on the market now may be the best time. I could really use a few more listingsJ Call or e-mail me to discuss this warming trend in housing.
Remember, I am never to busy to be of help to you or those you know thinking of moving.
