Welcome to another episode of House Shout! In this episode, we have Kayla and Spencer, who have recently signed their house papers and are preparing to move into their new home. Kayla admits to having an unusual obsession with constantly monitoring the real estate market, a habit she feels needs to be curbed now that they've found their new home.
The couple shares their experience of selling their previous house and purchasing a new one. Initially, Kayla was reluctant to use a realtor to avoid paying hefty commissions. After interviewing several candidates, they ultimately chose Spencer Barlow, who was crucial in preparing their house for sale and quickly getting it on the market. Despite facing some setbacks when their first buyer backed out, Spencer Barlow successfully sold their house at a desirable price.
When asked about advice for potential buyers in the current market, Kayla and Spencer highlight that it is a great time to buy. While selling their home was challenging, they found buying less competitive, allowing them more control over offers. Despite the high-interest rates, they emphasize that buyers can always refinance when rates drop again. They also note that sellers are more willing to make concessions, which worked to their advantage in negotiating a lower price for their new home.
In conclusion, Kayla and Spencer happily celebrate securing a new house they can finally call home. Tune in to this episode of House Shout to hear more about their real estate journey and gain valuable insights into the current market for buyers.
