Looking to Buy a Co-op or Condo: Brace Yourself for a Busy Spring!

March 13, 2015 — The weather is warmer and the street corners are mostly clear of Olympic-size slush pools that made walking around a major drag. Spotted near north Yonkers this week was a small crowd of people around the telltale open house sign. It has begun. And once spring is underway, reports DNAinfo, "buyers should brace for crowded open houses." StreetEasy compiled stats for DNAinfo that found, not surprisingly, that things get quietest in the winter months. Who wants to go out in weather like we had? And, from the seller's point of view, who wants a bunch of people trudging around their apartments in wet snow boots? So if you're looking and you've been underwhelmed by the options, take heart. More people will be putting their homes on the market as the weather improves and spring promises to be a busy season indeed.
