Most home sellers in Albuquerque don't think that selling a home during the holidays is a good idea. It's a busy time of year for most people.

But there are some real benefits of selling your home during the holiday season. There's less competition for one thing, as most people sell during the spring and summer. Buyers also have more time off and are more available for showings.

If you decide to sell your home during the holidays, there are things you can do to make it an easier process.

Stage It Accordingly

You can use the holidays to make your home more inviting to buyers. Just make sure not to overdo it. You can add some simple and tasteful decorations that will warm up the home without hiding it's features.

Focus on the cozy features like the fireplace. And it’s a great time to use the classic real estate trick of baking cookies when someone comes for a showing. Make sure your home is warm temperature-wise as well.

Clean-Up the Curb Appeal

Winter may make landscaping a little more challenging, but you need to make your yard as appealing as you can. Clean up the yard, clean up the exterior of your home, and illuminate pathways. Also make sure that there’s a mat at the door so people coming to see your house can wipe their feet.

Price It Accordingly

Your agent can work with you to develop the right pricing strategy based on their assessment of the data. Many variables go into pricing, but you may need to go a little lower than you’d like if you are selling around the holidays.

If you’re selling during the holidays, it’s not the time to haggle. During this time of year, it’s often better to price it right from the start instead of making price reductions later.

Work with a Reliable Agent

Working with an experienced agent during the holidays will make all the difference. Sandi Pressley and her team have been rated the #1 real estate agents in New Mexico, so you can count on them to help you make the sale.

Be Flexible About Showings

During the holiday season, everyone is busy and may have more plans than usual, but if you’re selling your home, you need to be flexible and accessible when it comes to showings. It’s a challenging time, so if someone wants to see your home, you need to do everything you can to facilitate that.

If you can manage your expectations before you put your Albuquerque home on the marketing during the holidays, it’s going to help you stay more relaxed and also hopefully help you sell your house faster.

Selling a home in Albuquerque is an opportunity to make a significant amount of money. And you can maximize that opportunity by enhancing your home's curb appeal. Making your home stand out in the market is crucial to making a quick sale and getting the highest offer possible. Here are some simple and effective ideas for enhancing your curb appeal that also won't break the bank.

Pressure Wash

Giving your home a good pressure washing is an affordable and easy way to give your home's exterior a quick and easy makeover. You can rent a pressure washer and most hardware or home improvement stores.

Install New House Numbers

If your house has old or faded house numbers on it, install some new numbers to spruce up the curb appeal. Try to match your new house numbers with the finish that is on your exterior light fixtures. Simple house numbers can start at $2.00 for a number or you can look into customized plaques that can cost $50-$100.

Fresh Doormat

A fresh front doormat offers a welcome greeting to visitors. What better way to greet guests, while also keeping the dirt where it belongs - outside.

Install a Porch Swing

A cozy wooden porch swing adds a spot to relax outside, while also enhancing your curb appeal. Before purchasing a new porch swing, be sure to measure your space.

Paint the Front Door

You can paint your front door for less than $50. Giving your front door a new coat of paint will add brightness and revive your house. Pick a bold color that makes your house stick out, but make sure to match it to the rest of the colors on your house. Properly prep all surfaces before you paint so you'll get great results that will last for years to come.

Install a New Door Knob

While you're paining your front door, you can add an eye-catching door knob and punch up the design of the front of your house. With a wide range of prices and styles, you have endless options. Today, there are several safety door locks on the market that have cameras or numerical codes that will unlock the door.

Plant a Tree

Planting a tree is one of the most common ways to add curb appeal to your house. Before you plant a tree, consider how big the tree will get and how it will affect your house. If you have enough space, try planting two trees to frame your house or your entryway.

Outdoor Furniture

Adding seating space will give your home charm. Porch furniture can be found at antique or second hand stores and can easily be painted. Just add fresh cushions and they will look like new.

As you well know, the pandemic has impacted every industry, including the the real estate industry. The way people buy and sell homes has changed quite a bit as a result. The interesting twist in all of this is that the demand for housing hasn't fallen, despite expectations that it would. In fact, the demand seems to has gone up.

Many people in Albuquerque are looking for more space, and for obvious reasons. We are all spending much more time in our homes, as well as working from home. And since more people are working remotely, they have the options to widen their search since they don't have the commute they use to. Who knows if this will be a permanent situation. But in the end, things will be different when the pandemic pass, and home buyers are keeping that in mind when searching for a home in Albuquerque.

Whether you plan to buy or sell a home in Albuquerque, you need to be aware fo how much the market has changed. This will allow you to find the right home for your needs.

Here are a few things to keep in mind when buying or selling a home in Albuquerque during the pandemic.

Know the Local Albuquerque Real Estate Market

Keep in mind that local real estate markets vary from place to place. Right now in Albuquerque, there are plenty of homes for sale. That means that Albuquerque has a great selection of homes for home buyers looking for a home that better suits their needs. This is not even including the surrounding communities such as Bernalillo, Corrales, Rio Rancho, and others. These surrounding areas in Albuquerque give home buyers more options, as commuting is not as much as an issue as it once was for many people who can now work from home.

The Changing Loan Market

It's taking a bit longer for loans to go through now due to the pandemic, as some parts of the home loan market are not operating at full capacity. This is causing a backlog in processing loans. To add to this load, traditional lenders are trying to process SBA loans under the Payroll Protection Program (PPP), placing home loans lower on the priority list.

This means that has a home buyer in Albuquerque, you need to be patient. Interest rates are still historically low. If you are looking to buy a home in Albuquerque that you plan on living in for the next few decades, you could end up saving thousands of dollars over the life of the loan.

Questions About Employment Are Common

Finally, you should expect a lot of questions about the status of your employment. Since tens of millions of people have filed for unemployment since the pandemic started, lenders are just as strict as ever when it comes to making sure their borrowers have the capacity to pay back their loans. You might even be asked to submit pay stubs every two weeks instead of the traditional six weeks.

The Real Estate Market in Albuquerque Is Strong

The COVID-19 pandemic has forever changed how people look at the process of buying and selling homes. Right now, everyone needs to expect the unexpected. The good news is that for both buyers and sellers in Albuquerque, there are still significant opportunities.

Selling your home in Albuquerque can be an exciting time, but there's a lot of things to keep in mind so that the process goes smoothly as you transition to your new home. Here are a few common mistakes for you to avoid in hopes to keep the selling process as efficient and stress-free as possible.

1. Setting a price for your home without doing research or working with a real estate agent is the first mistake to avoid. Home prices are based on a number of factors, such as comparable sales in your Albuquerque neighborhood,the time of year, current available inventory, and much more. 

2. On that same note, the next mistake to avoid is pricing your home too high off the bat. We can tell you from experience that overpricing a listing will yield fewer showings. Also, we know that homes for sale in Albuquerque sell closer to their asking amount if they are priced correctly at the start of the listing. 

3. Another mistake regarding pricing your home for sale is setting a strange listing price. In other words, don't set your price for your $400k home at $402,289. Not only is that odd, but it will keep your home from being seen if a home buyer is searching for homes in the price range below $400,000.

4. Overpricing your home because you have more time to sell it is also a mistake. Some may think that they can list their home at a higher price and wait for the right buyer to come along who will pay it. Yet the longer your house sits on the market, the less likely you are to get showings and in return the more difficult it becomes to attain that higher asking price. 

5. Becoming emotionally involved in the selling process is another mistake that's easy to make. You have probably lived in this home for years and have emotional connections to it. But you need to remember that this is a business transaction, and you should not take it personally if you get a low offer on your listing. View this as an opportunity to negotiate with the potential buyer to see if you can settle on a number that works for both parties. 

6. Even in the best seller’s market, you need to stay away from the mindset that the house will sell itself. Anytime a listing goes live, you need to ensure that the home is properly staged and marketed to ensure it is appealing to potential buyers. 

7. Finally, the last mistake to avoid is trying to sell your home on your own. Studies have shown that homes for sale in Albuquerque stay on the market longer and sell for far less when people do not work with a real estate agent.

There are a lot of beautiful homes in Albuquerque for sale. So when you sell your home, you need to make sure it stands out from all the competition, especially these days. Your porch will be one of first things that potential home buyers in Albuquerque will see, so you want to make sure it welcomes them to their new home. Having an inviting porch is an important part of staging your home so that it sell more quickly. Here's a few ideas that will help your porch stand out and welcome guests and home buyers alike.

1. Plants in the Foreground

You can lead your guests right to your porch with plants and flowers that follow the path to your front door. Pretty flowers can really make a big difference in curb appeal. And for those sitting on the porch, it's also a relaxing scene to look at.

2. A Doormat

This step involves nothing more than replacing that tired old doormat. For a more custom affect, try layering a traditional coir doormat atop a larger striped outdoor rug.

3. A Pair of Chairs

If there's room for it, having two chairs instead of one is more welcoming, as it paints the scene of family and friends spending time on the porch together. Some photos may show a chair on each side of a porch, but that doesn't make sense in real life, unless you want to shout back and forth across the porch. Put them together.

4. Thoughtful Color Coordination

Use the color of your front door or trim as a starting point for choosing a color scheme for your porch. You can then repeat that same hue in the accents, like pillows, cushions, door mat, and flower pots.

5. A Fan

Fans are a great way to deal with the bugs and warm weather, and as such make a great investment. A ceiling fan installed by a professional is an ideal choice, but you could also use a standing or tabletop fan as well.

6. Outdoor Curtains

If your porch is lacking in shade, you can add a set of outdoor curtains to diffuse the sun. You can open and close them as needed, just like indoor curtains. If you choose a color other than white, make sure it's a fade resistant fabric to make sure the colors stay vibrant.

With these tips, you'll be on your way to making your home in Albuquerque stand out from the rest of the pack.

Downsizing. It's a word that's been on more people's lips lately due to the economic situation we're living in now. Many people are thinking about how they can adjust their finances to ride this storm and be more secure. For those who own a home in Albuquerque, the thought of moving into a smaller and less expensive home has stood out as a way to make better use of income now, and in the future.

Traditionally, downsizing was a decision that mostly retired homeowners were faced with. Now, virtually all of us need to consider it. But is downsizing your home the right move for you? Here are some pros and cons to consider before you abandon your home for a smaller one in Albuquerque.

Pro: You Can Make Money Selling Your Stuff

Moving into a smaller home means that you will need to shed some possessions. You can sell your more expensive items using Facebook, Craigslist, or Ebay. Depending on social distancing restrictions in the future, you can have a garage sale. Whatever is left to dispense of can be donated.

Con: Purging Can Be Exhausting

Selling your personal items does take a good deal of time (which you may have more of now anyways), but it can be exhausting. Just deciding what to get rid of can be emotionally draining.

Pro: Live in a More Desirable Neighborhood in Albuquerque

As a smaller home in Albuquerque will probably cost less, this can give you an opportunity to move to a neighborhood in Albuquerque that better fits your new lifestyle. You can check out the top neighborhoods in Albuquerque and search for homes on our blog.

Pro: Fewer Costs and Less Upkeep

If you move into a less expensive home in Albuquerque, you can save any profit you make in the move. And you'll probably also save more money on utilities. If you shop wisely, you can find a more energy efficient home that will help you save money down the road. Plus, you'll have a smaller home to upkeep, saving even more money.

Con: The Costs of Moving

Depending on how far you move and if you hire professionals, moving could cost you a lot of money, not to mention effort and time. Plus, there's the time and effort to put your home on the market and go through the selling process, and then to find your new home.

Con: Less Space

With less space to work with, you'll need to be more selective about what you buy. Living in small quarters means constantly making a series of trade-offs. 

Downsizing is a big decision, but one that can make a positive impact on your life. If you carefully weigh the costs and benefits, you can make a good decision when it comes to downsizing to a smaller home in Albuquerque.
