Text for the items from 21 to 30.
1 ____ If you’re thinking of selling your home, you’re
probably wondering what to expect from the housing market
in 2022.
4 ____ The housing market will continue to be strong, but
may start to normalize in 2022, according to the National
Association of REALTORS® (NAR)’s Chief Economist, Lawrence
7 Yun. Yun believes that the market will slow, but that prices
will continue to rise.
Yun and his team predict that annual median home
10 prices will increase by 5.7%, inflation will rise 4% and the Fed
will increase the federal funds rate by 0.25% two times in
2022. An increase in the fed funds rate will cause mortgage
13 rates to rise as well.
Most of the early COVID-19 rules – stay-at-home
orders, mask mandates and social distancing – have expired.
16 However, some states and localities continue to have
restrictions – and many others are considering reinstating
them in response to the Omicron variant and surging
19 COVID-19 infection rates. If you’re getting ready to sell, be
sure to check with your agent to see what rules are in place.
In the absence of hard rules and with COVID-19 still
22 out there, it’s largely up to sellers to decide what
precautions seller’s and listing agents must take when
showing their home.
25 ____The real estate industry has changed significantly
since March 2020, but it has successfully adapted to the
challenges of COVID-19 by relying heavily on technology.
28 ____Real estate agents have long been using social
media, online pictures and virtual tours to market their
properties. With photo/video platforms like Instagram,
31 Periscope and Facebook Live, agents can host virtual
showings to their entire social network to yield new leads.
“Even before COVID-19, social media was a major
34 factor in the way we brought listings to buyers”, says Ryan
Tombul, a Nashville REALTOR®, J. D. “Social media doubles as
an avenue for free marketing that allows agents to
37 supplement exposure for listings within their own personal
network and beyond”.
Virtual home tours have increased the speed and
40 cost of selling a property, but the process itself is the same.
Listing agents oversee the creation of your home’s digital
profile. Buyers view what has been created from the comfort
43 of their home. Ideally, buyers would then send the listings
they’re interested into their agents to arrange showings.
Virtual tours have become the new norm in the real
46 estate business.
“I think in today's digital era, it’s much easier to
connect with clients”, says Lisa Alexander. “We used to keep
49 our virtual tours for our luxury homes, but we’ve found it
adds to the home buying experience for our clients. We feel
as though this will become the new normal”.
52 Whether buyers will be willing to continue the home
buying process online when the next buyer’s market (or at
least some kind of equilibrium) is established, is anyone’s
55 guess.
