There will always be buyers on the fence Will.  

Hopefully tomorrow Will Hamm 

Will Hamm - as long as buyers are on the fence, the agent working with the buyer is also on the fence. So it is important to learn the techniques on how to bring the buyers 'down' - on either side!

(Now this is a part of my Peak Producers training - the whole session for this topic.9

They are already out there buying! There are some waiting for new listings coming on the market but many are snapping current inventory!

Maybe waiting for Spring time inventories. If they are still waiting to see what Trump is going to do they aren't moving off that fence.

as soon as more fresh inventory surfaces..... we are on the hunt for approved subdivisions.... and/or single lots that can start immediately... just put a deal together last evening....

spring time

Tomorrow!

Hard to say the supply is soo low they have very little to pick from is a problem

I think they all jumped off this past week! 

I think many are off the fence now.

They are buying in our area.

Serious buyers buy.

Oh, mine are off the fence and dying for new listings to hit the market so they can pounce!

AS soo as there is someting to buy...at least n my area.

Eight years after the housing bubble, yet many homeowners  and buyers are still excising caution. This is particularly seen in the luxury real estate market, which is still on a slow note. 

 Tomorrow.

soon

I haven't seen any sitting on the fence. Buyers continue to call and renters are thinking of buying.

Dont waste your time with people who are sitting on fences Will.

It's already starting in my area and agents are showing houses today!

Your guess is as good as mine.

We are having a Very Mild Winter, Buyers haven't climbed up yet due to Snow, so we are having a Great year so far!

Our buyers are buying!  We cannot keep any inventory - multiple offers and closings over asking are still happening, despite our difficult winter weather.

Will, I have ready and able buyers it is the Seller that are in need.

No fences here in Sarasota

They are off the fence, just not enough inventory here.

Home in Easy Bay not good neighborhood, listed for $740K offered $755K finish last place with 10 offers.    South Bay fixer upper, agent almost fell into a 10 ft pool bottom with weeds and dirts, broken pipe above and below, leaky roof. Not possible for a loan. Comps shows about $600K needing redo most of 1550 sf 3/2 house. Terrible neighborhood. The accepted offer was $585K as is. 10 day closing (31 offers all cash).

Close to Silicon Valley homes that were selling 850K 3 years ago seller wants $1.3M. Sold for $1.84M (3/1.5/1200 sf-55 year).

Bottom line every buyer seems to be convinced interest rates will NOT be that low anymore they are into execution stage making their offers.

Inventory would accomplish getting most off the fence.

As more inventory becomes available, they will buy.  The number of listings has tightened up significantly in the past month or two.

We will just have to see....

Immediately after they are empowered to release their fear.

"Now it the time to buy!" and "Now is the time to sell!" does not assuage that fear.

IT will be left to the media or zillow or enlighten professionals to deliver the empowerment.

Seems like it happened here last weekend.

Will,

When inspiration hits them.

As rates rise it gets some serious and some will get off the fence and keep renting.

I don't know but I am trying to write inspirational posts to make that happen. Any suggestions anybody?

I am going to use some graphs from NAR.
