We’ve seen it before. In Calgary, the economic downturn that has led to unemployment and a significant decrease in housing prices seems to be coming to an end. If you’re in the market to buy a new home, now is the time to do it. With the help of a Calgary realtor, you can buy low, but you better do it quickly because it looks like 2019 will be the year to sell.
The experts are forecasting a year of recovery and moderation for 2019. Expect to see housing prices increase as the oil and gas industry continues to recover and job availability increases. Experts also expect an overall increase in housing market activity. Higher housing prices are good news if you’re planning to list your Calgary home for sale in the new year. Be sure to hire a Calgary realtor to help you prepare for the future and remain current and competitive in the real estate market.
Economic upturns usually also bring an increase in population growth. A higher population inevitably equals more demand for houses, and that’s good news for you. If you plan to sell your home in 2019, the chances are you’ll have an easier time doing so with higher demand.
In 2019 and 2020, Calgarians will likely experience higher employment rates as a result of the economic recovery we expect to see. More jobs mean more people with the money to actually purchase a home. Your Calgary real estate agent can help you sort through the increase of interested buyers.
According to professionals in the industry, Spring is the best time to sell your house. In Calgary, that’s a very narrow window of time, but May and June are generally considered to be good months to sell. When the weather starts to warm, people are more likely to go outside and really be on the hunt for a new home. The warm weather will also improve the curb appeal of your house and provide better lighting during showings. It’s also easier to prepare your home for sale in the Spring and take care of any outdoor maintenance. Selling in the Spring will also give the Calgary real estate market more time to recover.
