3 Not-So-Obvious Indicators it’s Time to Sell…

There are many good reasons to put your property on the market.  Some examples include a relocation, the kids leaving the nest, the need for something bigger or smaller, and the list goes on and on.

However, there are also some less-than-obvious indicators that it may be time to sell.  Consider the following:

1. Your Property is not longer a Good “Fit”
   Your home may have been perfect for you when you bought it.  But things change. Families grow.  Needs evolve.  For any number of reasons, your property may no longer be a good fit for you.  If that’s the case, it makes sense to at least take a look at what’s available on the market.  Who knows?  Your next “perfect” home may be for sale right now – within your price range!
2. The Neighbourhood is Changing
   You may have been in love with the neighbourhood when you first moved in.  But, over time, the characteristics of any area can change.  Those changes don’t necessarily mean the neighbourhood is getting worse.  In fact, it may be changing in a positive way; perhaps becoming more urban.  But, “more urban” may not be what you want.  So take a look at the direction your neighbourhood is heading.  Ask yourself, “Do I still want to be living here in two years?”
3. You’re Ready for Your Dream Home
   Remember when you purchased your current property?  Did it have every feature you wanted? Was it your dream home? Or, did you have to compromise on a few things, such as the size of the kitchen?  If you had to make some tough choices back then, it might be time for you to finally get the home of your dreams.
