Bakersfield Association reports that prices in Bakersfield 93306 have held steady over the last two years. Expect them to rise in coming months and push past $140/sqft to $150/sqft or $160/sqft.

In other areas of Bakersfield, prices are not nearly as stable. Bakersfield 93306 shows a lot of strength in home values. This means that you can more easily set a price for your home when you attempt to sell it.

Buyer’s need more options in Bakersfield 93306, which means that your home will get a lot of attention.

Buyers consistently purchase an average of 30 houses per month in 93306, but the number of houses available for sale keeps dropping. Buyers are running out of houses to buy, which means that if you sell now, you will compete less for buyer attention.

There are only 45 houses available for home buyers shopping in 93306. If buyers are purchasing 30 houses every months, you can clearly see that they don’t have many options to pick from. What this means is that you should not worry about making extensive repairs. Buyers need homes to purchase now, so list your home as it is today.

Inventory is extraordinarily low, which means there is plenty of demand for new listings.

Bakersfield Association of Realtors reports inventory levels as low as 1.7 in Bakersfield 93306, which means that sellers have all the negotiating power over buyers in that market.

Another way that we review the market is inventory. If you (and many others) don’t list your homes for sale, then buyers will have no homes to buy in as little as 1.7 months. What this means for you is that buyers don’t have other options, which puts you in control during negotiations. We call this a “seller’s market.”

How to advertise your home for best effect

When inventory is as low as 1.7 months of available listings, new listings do not need a lot of extra marketing effort in order to sell. As long as your home is listed in the Multiple Listing Service, it will sell quickly. Some homes are even selling a little over value because buyers are desperate for choices.
