DECIDING
WHETHER OR NOT TO SELL YOUR HOME
It is good to understand the
market when trying to decide whether you should sell it or not. The most
important factor would be whether you are facing a seller's market with
low inventory and rising prices, or a buyer's market with lots of houses
for sale. It's also important to understand what kind of homes sell best
in your area.
If you're not under pressure
to sell, think about different factors, such as:
Financial impact
Relocation costs thousands of dollars, and can end up costing as much
as 15% of the sale price of your home, taking the real estate commission,
closing fees, and moving costs all into consideration. The less equity
you have in your house, the harder it will be on you financially. It's
important to think through then numbers before you make a decision.
Timing
Consider the timing of your sale relative to the market and to your home
equity. If the market is slow, and your equity is low, you could be paying
off your lender with money from your own pocket. The more equity you have,
the better able you will be to cover selling costs.
Tax consequences
Even though you probably won't have to pay capital gains taxes on the
sale of your house, it is still something to consider. If you've lived
in your house for only a short time, the chances increase that this may
be an issue you will have to consider. Make sure you know where you stand.
Alternatives to selling
If you're selling to get away from crime, troublesome neighbors, or because
you want more space, do a reality check. A look at crime statistics may
show you're safer than you would be in a new neighborhood; a tall fence
could shield you from neighbors. And remodeling your current home could
give you the extra room you want. Look into the alternatives to moving
and get all the facts before you jump into the market.
