Mike Long Realtor

Starting today the real estate industry sees big changes in how commission are paid and the buyer/agent relationship. A good read here and as always I am available to answer any questions.

Summary:
-Buyer and agent must have a written agreement where commission is established before showing any properties.
-Seller can no longer offer commissions up front through the MLS but is allowed to pay if requested by buyer via addendum.
-Seller establishes their commission with their agent. Buyer establishes their commission with their agent.

It's not terribly complicated. It's just new.

Jr Huskies day at Loyola to cheer on NNHS Alum Tom Welch.

We saw Papa reffing the Naperville North Huskies football game a few weekends ago!

This girl had herself a weekend! With TWO first place finishes she earned her Solo Dress in Irish Dance! A goal she set at the beginning of the year and after a summer of travel and ups and downs…she did it!! So proud!

If you are thinking of listing or know of someone listing their home this winter or next spring and planning on working with me let's consider getting exterior photos taken before end of October versus November-April. Yards start looking pretty again in May/June.

Good tips.

The Big Advantage If You Sell This Spring

Thinking about selling your house? If you’ve been waiting for the right time, it could be now while the supply of homes for sale is so low. HousingWire shares:

“. . . the big question is whether we are finally starting to see the seasonal spring increase in inventory. The answer is no, because active listings fell to a new low last week for 2023 . . .”

The National Association of Realtors (NAR) confirms today’s housing inventory is low by looking at the months’ supply of homes on the market. In a balanced market, about a six-month supply is needed. And today, the number is much lower:
