Perks of Buying in the Spring Market

They say April showers bring May flowers, but what about dream homes? As spring flourishes into full bloom, there’s exciting things to come with the changing of the season.

If you’ve been contemplating entering the housing market but have been holding out for the perfect moment, now is your time. They say spring is a time for new beginnings, so take the leap and spring into a new home! Here are some reasons why buying in the spring market is beneficial.

Weather

Spring is perhaps one of the most beautiful times of the year — especially to see a home. You can spend your weekends taking in the fresh air as you travel to and from different communities, in and out of model homes staged to look their prettiest during the spring months. You might also walk around exploring on-site amenities and the outdoor scenery amidst mild temperatures, making it easy to imagine life at your new home. And with daylight savings, the evenings stay brighter a little longer, so you have the chance to see a potential home after work hours. Experience is everything, so if you start the house hunting with a feel-good mentality in the springtime, you just might find your dream home!

Inventory

The spring market is also advantageous to home buyers because you will have options. With it still being early in the year, builders have strong goals they want to meet, meaning there’s a lot of inventory to choose from when you start looking in the spring. It’s definitely a perk to start making relationships with builders and starting conversations before the peak summer season hits — you might appreciate a more intimate buying experience with time to discuss all your options. And if you’re there as soon as spring has sprung, chances are you’ll come across the early season gems once they hit the market!

Timing

It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of finding a brand new home and getting involved with customization processes to make it your own. However, the best thing about making the move is when it all works out perfectly for the whole family. Buying in the spring market sets your family up with a seamless transition from contract to closing. With it being spring, your children can finish the current school year where they’re at, get moved into the new house before the new school year begins, and finally be settled in just in time for the traditions and fun that comes with the holiday season.
