Buyer in a Seller's market

Over the last few years Guelph has sustained a strong Seller’s market. Even through a pandemic, Seller’s continue to hold the power. So, if you have an investment property, you are sitting pretty! However, it gets tricky when a Seller needs to purchase in the same market. Here are some tips for Buyers trying to come out on top in a competitive market! 

Three important tips to get you through the purchasing process:

  1. Choose a realtor and mortgage professional you feel comfortable with and trust. Having these two on your team will help you navigate the process feeling safe and secure.

  2. No question is a dumb question! That is why your Realtor® is there. As professionals in the field, we are constantly connected to what is going on in the market and know the ins and outs of the process. 

  3. Act fast. The market is HOT right now and inventory does not last. Most homes have an offer day, this allows the property to be on the market for a designated amount of time, giving buyers a chance to get their ducks in a row - financing, inspection, etc. So, if a home is not holding off offers, I urge you to act fast!

I’ll leave you with a saying I’ve read before, “the home you saw today and are thinking about tonight, will be sold today to the people who saw it yesterday…”.  All I’m saying is get in contact with a Realtor® to start your home purchasing journey!
