“WHAT DO RISING INTEREST RATES MEAN FOR SELLERS?”
Rising interest rates typically mean that fewer buyers will be in the market for a house because fewer qualify, and those who do will qualify for a lower loan amount. This means less competition over houses listed for sale. Sellers may see longer market times and offers that are below the asking price. However, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t list your home for sale when interest rates are on the rise. Many sellers are also about to become buyers as they upgrade or downgrade to a different home. As buyers, they will have less competition, pay a lower price, be more likely to have an offer accepted, and may even be able to make a contingent offer.
