Homeowners across the country are in a strong position right now to make big money.
Two people who were approached by real-estate agents shared why they decided to sell their houses.
One agent sold his father-in-law s home for 20% more than the original price in an all-cash offer.
While potential homebuyers are scrambling to win competitive bidding wars, some homeowners are being approached to sell by real-estate agents.
The current real-estate boom is fueled in part by the coronavirus pandemic, the widespread exodus from big cities, low interest rates, and the rise in interested buyers. Because of this, homes have been selling quicker than ever and at record rates, making housing inventory fall to a record low. And demand doesn t seem to be slowing anytime soon.
