5 Benefits of Buying a New Home this Fall

Now that fall is upon us, the temperature will soon drop, bringing about cool and crisp autumn air. Autumn creates the perfect time to purchase a home at the Lake of the Ozarks for a number of reasons. Your expert real estate agents in Sunrise Beach, MO are here to help you find the right home to meet your wants and needs. There are a number of benefits of buying a home in the fall, provided for you by Eagle’s Nest Realty.  


1. Spring Inventory


Often times, homes are put on the market in the spring, but are still listed for sale come fall. This creates a great opportunity for a buyer to have more negotiating room, if the seller is ready to be out of their home. Spring inventory can make for a deal on a house purchase in the fall, for many buyers.

2. Price Flexibility


Many homes have been on the market longer than a few months, and at this point, sellers are ready to move on to their new location. This is a major benefit for current buyers in search of a home this fall. Often the price will be more negotiable once the home has been on the market for a bit. A seller is more likely to accept a lower offer on their home after it has been listed for sale all summer. Fall is a great time for buyers to take advantage of price flexibility at the Lake of the Ozarks.

3. Pleasant Moving Weather


If you do find your dream home this time of year, chances are you will close and move in before winter weather reaches the area. Moving in the summer can be a hot, sticky mess, whereas the fall typically offers perfect temperatures for a move. It is much more pleasant to transition your belongings into a new home in the fall. You never know, you may even get more volunteers to help you with your move in cooler weather!

4. Motivated Sellers


If a seller has been sitting on their home for sale for a few months, they will be more willing to negotiate with buyers. A motivated seller offers a direct benefit to potential buyers in the market at the Lake of the Ozarks. Reap the benefits of a motivated seller in the area this autumn.

5. Tax Benefit


There are tax benefits available for the purchase of a home. Take advantage of a tax break for the 2016 year by purchasing a home before the year ends. If you buy a home in fall, you will be able to claim that on your taxes come April, and help maximize your refund.

If you are considering the purchase of a home in the area, autumn is a great time! Between the motivated sellers and beautiful weather, fall combines a number of benefits for buying a home. Your trusted real estate agents at the Lake of the Ozarks would be pleased to help you find the right home for you and your family this fall. As the season changes, and the temperature falls, you may be ready to invest in a home at the Lake of the Ozarks. Contact Eagle’s Nest Realty to start your home search today!
