How will we find a home when they are so few available?!
If you're thinking about buying a home but worried about the low inventory, you're not alone. Many buyers are asking: "How will we find a home when there are so few available?" The good news is, there are ways to find hidden opportunities, even in a tight market. Here’s what the Justiz League Real Estate Team focuses on for our buyers:
1. Loosen Your Search Parameters
Flexibility can open up new possibilities. For example, if you’re set on a 3-bedroom home, consider looking at 2-bedroom homes with a bonus room that could be converted into a third bedroom. You might be surprised at what options become available with a slight adjustment to your criteria.
2. Off-Market Finds
Not every home for sale is listed online. By tapping into our strong local network, we uncover off-market homes being sold by word of mouth—giving you access to properties others might miss.
3. Expired Listings
Homes that didn’t sell when previously listed can still be available. We proactively reach out to see if the homeowners are open to selling, offering you another option in a competitive market.
4. Homes Not Yet for Sale
Sometimes, a home isn’t listed today, but that doesn’t mean it won’t be soon. In low-inventory markets, we’ll send letters to homeowners in neighborhoods you’re interested in, potentially finding homes that haven’t hit the market yet.
Conclusion: We’ll Find a Way
Even in a challenging market, there are strategies to find the right home. If you're ready to start your search, reach out to the Justiz League Real Estate Team—we're here to help you find your next home!
