Whether you are in a warm weather market, cold weather market, or a high tourist seasonal market, you will see the hot time of the year to buy and sell a home ebb and flow throughout the year. There will be times of the year that will slow down and others will take off. Locally, we are about to step into the busiest time of year to buy and sell a home in Knoxville. As evidenced by the graphics below, we typically see a drop in sales volume, sales price, and inventory throughout the winter months. Then once we hit February or March, the trend does an about face and the number of homes sold increases, along with the prices of those homes and the number of homes available.
What does this mean for you?
- If you are looking to sell a home in Knoxville, there is good news and not so good news. The good news is, the odds of selling your home will increase along with the odds of selling it for a higher price. The not so good news is you will have more competition.

VIDEO: Historic Homes of Knoxville
Knoxville is home to all different kinds of homes and as a REALTOR, I’ve been in quite a few of them. While I don’t always get to know the stories of the families that own the specific homes for sale in Knoxville, the history of a home can make it unique and actually add value. This is one of the reasons I like to have my clients who are selling homes in Knoxville write a “What We Love About This House” note. It gives a potential buyer a glimpse into the history and life of a house that they might not get a chance to see otherwise.
There are some great stories to be found within the Historic Homes of Knoxville. Stories about families, stories about soldiers, history of not only Knoxville but Tennessee and the United States. If you have an opportunity, you should take the time to visit these historic Knoxville homes and learn the rich history that was birthed within them. The video below will give you a good introduction and possibly spur you on to visit in the near future.

What Will A 1% Difference In Your Mortgage Rate Save You?
If you are in the process of buying a home in Knoxville or at least thinking about it, financing is also on your mind. Unless you are planning to pay cash, you’re going to want to find the best deal and the lowest mortgage rate. Knoxville mortgage rates can vary from lender to lender and also vary widely according to the type of mortgage and the length of the term.
“Although the difference in monthly payment between a 4.5 percent interest rate and a 5.5 percent interest is not as dramatic, your savings in interest paid over the life of the loan is significant,” said Erin Lantz, director of Zillow Mortgage Marketplace. “Mortgage rates will likely rise to 5 percent by the end of 2014 due to an improving economy and policy changes by the Federal Reserve. By buying a house while interest rates are still incredibly low, you could end up saving more than $52,000 over the course of 30 years.”
