You might take a loss by selling your house now.  So why do it?  

THREE REASONS :   “WHY SELL YOUR MIAMI HOUSE NOW?”

1) You’ll come out ahead, whether you are buying a bigger house  or downsizing.

Interest rates have actually just dropped again – to 4.19%.   In a recent New York Times report, Carl E. Case of the Case Shiller Index,  hit the nail on the head :

“Four years ago, the monthly payment on a $300,000 house with 20 percent down and a mortgage rate of about 6.6 percent was $1,533. Today that $300,000 house would sell for $213,000 and a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage with 20 percent down would carry a rate of about 4.2 percent and a monthly payment of $833 … housing has perhaps never been a better bargain.”

2) Buyers are serious about buying now.   They are no longer wandering aimlessly from one open house to another.  They realize that there is VALUE  to be had,  that there are unique buying opportunities out there… and that, coupled with historically  low interest rates spurs buyers to  purchase property. Real estate is a seasonal affair.  The fall  season  is historically one of the best times for selling, and it  has proved to be solid  again in 2010.

3) There is considerably less inventory to pick from right now… That will probably be the case for at least the next several months… at least until lenders start releasing  their  backlog of foreclosed properties  –  and that shouldn’t be until some time after January 2011.
