Now that spring has sprung, heavy open house traffic and multiple offer situations are likely to keep our members busy. We also expect to see price appreciation and a shortage of supply continue through summer.” Debating putting your home on the market? Now may be the time. Many buyers are so motivated and ready to make a purchase that quality listings are netting heavy open house traffic and often getting multiple offers.
