Selling This Fall? You Haven't Missed Your Window

Listing this fall doesn't mean your house will sit on the market until spring. Buyers are out there right now, ready to make a move before the new year – and your window is still open.

Let's connect and make yours one of the homes that sells this season.

Summer's winding down, and if you've been thinking about selling, you might be wondering if you missed your chance.

August numbers are in—and Long Island home values remain strong.

The median single-family sale price in Suffolk County reached $760,000 in August, up 7.0% from a year ago, according to OneKey MLS. Nassau reached $911,000, up 4.7%.

But here’s the important part if you’re a homeowner:

A 7% increase in Suffolk County doesn’t mean your particular home went up exactly 7%.

Your neighborhood, school district, condition, improvements, lot, taxes and current competition all affect what buyers may be willing to pay.

If you’re considering selling—or simply wondering where you stand—I’ll prepare a personalized home evaluation based on your property and your local market, not a county average.
