Blog Stories 'The' Market vs. Your Market

‘The’ Market vs. Your Market

By Andy Meeks, February 8, 2018

While all of the stats in this graphic represent ‘the Portland market’, everyone really operates within their own personal market. And those are typically different from what you see here and read about in the news.

As a buyer, your unique needs, capacities, timing, risk tolerance, home improvement desires, neighborhoods and overall flexibility are the defining features of your market. And as a seller, going to market at the right time of year, making an informed decision on listing price, prepping your home correctly, and choosing a talented real estate broker can help you outperform market averages, reduce days on the market and maximize money in your pocket.

While ‘the Portland market’ is no doubt competitive, by having a clear grasp of your factors and a plan built for your success, you can and will be able to succeed as a buyer or a seller. This is the perfect time of year to start that planning process by consulting various professionals like accountants, financial planners, mortgage brokers and real estate brokers.

Let me know if I can help you identify your market and build your plan for success.
