The First Wave Of Summer Home Buying Is Over

June is the peak selling month for real estate. 

If your home is listed and hasn't sold in June, though, it's not the end of the world.  It's just time to be a little bit more creative.

A good real estate agent will have loads of ideas to expand your home's natural buyer pool. 

If you live near a college, for example, home sales can come later in the summer if parents are looking to buy "second homes" for their children to live in. 

Condos can be especially attractive to older students (think: upper-20s and 30s) and/or graduate student with families, and your agent may specifically market to these buyer sets.

A home is product and needs to be marketed like anything else we buy.  If your home didn't sell yet, don't worry -- there are always options. 

Don't feel bashful about picking your real estate agent's brain for some good ideas to help re-position your home for a late-Summer sales push.
