How we helped Marylyn sell her home with our persistent marketing

“The house was sold with a cash offer right away! It took six months to sell, but that was due to legal issues. There was a pipe under the basement and the city wanted an easement. I was sometimes discouraged but I would talk with Kathy and she would calm me down. She really listened to my needs and provided great suggestions. All in all, she was very good about moderating my concerns. She was also very persistent in marketing the house! I am a fellow real estate agent and tried to sell by owner. I hired Kathy and was very glad I did.”

What Are Absorption Rates and How Do They Affect You?

Looking to sell your Ann Arbor Home? Get a FREE home value report

Looking to buy an Ann Arbor Home? Search all homes for sale

Ann Arbor is quickly becoming a very attractive place to live. We have one of the hottest real estate markets in the nation (the ninth hottest, to be exact).

We’re seeing 10% more homes listed this year, and they’re also selling for 2-3% more than they were last year. This means that you stand to make a nice profit if you choose to sell a home this year, and if you buy you can expect some nice appreciation on your investment.

6.9

One major factor to look at before you sell in Ann Arbor is the absorption rate. The rate right now is 6.5%, and this means that if no more new homes came onto the market, it would take 6.5 months for those homes to sell.

However, this is only part of the picture because certain neighborhoods and certain price ranges will be worth more than others. That’s why if you want more detailed information on this market you should contact us.

Now is the time to get into the market before it gets saturated with other buyers and sellers. Please reach out to me for more information.
