Wondering whether to sell your home -- and when? Put away the tea leaves and star charts. And while you’re at it, pack up the conventional wisdom. The good news for sellers is the nation as a whole has seen a sizzling real estate market over the last several years. From the third quarter of 1999 to the third quarter of 2004, American home prices increased more than 48 percent, accord- ing to the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight.
The bad news is that things are a little more complicated than "buy low, sell high." And while tradition has it that spring is the best time of year to market a piece of property, that’s not true in every locale. Throw in the fact that the old cycles have been thrown off by a tight housing market, and it’s enough to make a homeowner’s head spin.
"It’s a good time to sell your home," says Theodore Kaplan, who specializes in real estate at the Manhattan law firm Kaplan Fox & Kilsheimer, "if you have another place to go." It is tempting to cash out of a home and realize the gains of the past several years. But it’s a risky proposition un- less you are downsizing your residence or moving from a very expensive market, such as New York City, to a less pricey one, such as Atlanta. Otherwise, you will end up spending just as much--if not more--on new digs. In Manhattan or Las Vegas, for example, real estate prices can increase in a blink.
"The market is moving much faster than data can be collected," says Jacky Teplitzky, an executive vice president at New York -based Douglas Elliman. "For prices, you can’t even look at what’s sold--you have to look at what’s in contract right now."
When it comes to annual home sales cycles, the slowest months of the year are typically January and February, since fewer deals are made over the holidays, explains Walt Molony, spokesman for the National Association of Realtors, an industry organization based in Washington, D.C. A peak in June reflects the fact that many people want to move in between school years.
Which of the following may help you gain money in real estate?
选项
A、Moving from Atlantic to New York
B、Moving from a town to a city
C、Moving away from an open market
D、Moving to a smaller mansion
答案
D
解析
细节题。文章第三段提到:“…unless you are downsizing your residence or moving from a very expensive market,such as New York City,to a less pricey one,such as Atlanta.”((你别想从房地产中获益),除非缩小自己的居住面积,或者从像纽约这样房价高的地方搬到亚特兰大这样房价低的城市。),所以正确答案是D。
