There's Still Time to Make a Move in 2025 - Or Get Ahead for 2026

It’s hard to believe we’re already in the final stretch of the year! As we look ahead to 2026, now’s the perfect time to start thinking about your next move. Whether you're considering listing your home before the year ends or gearing up for a sale in early 2026, the work you do now can set the stage for a successful outcome. 

The fall season still offers real opportunity in the real estate market: serious buyers are active, and inventory remains in demand. 

Similarly, if you are looking at your next purchase, the current market offers a unique chance for buyers to act before competition heats up in 2026. With less crowded showings, motivated sellers, and the ability to negotiate more favorable terms, fall and early winter can be an ideal time to buy. Getting pre-approved, exploring options now, and being ready to move quickly gives you a serious edge, especially as we head into what’s expected to be a competitive spring market.

If a 2025 sale is still on your radar, it’s not too late. And if you're aiming for a strong start in 2026, now is the time to strategize, prep, and position your property to shine when the spring market heats up (and as you’ve heard me say many times, the spring market in the DMV can begin as early as January!) 

Let’s talk about the best approach for your timeline. Whether it’s a quick move or a longer-term plan, I’m here to help you get ahead. Let’s connect before the holidays to strategize; you might be surprised how much you can accomplish before the New Year!

Wishing you a fun Halloween and great start to Fall!
