Episode Details

Should you spend part of Labor Day weekend looking at houses, or just enjoy the holiday and wait until afterward? Alex Parmenidez has mixed feelings, and in this episode he explains why.

Labor Day lands at an interesting moment: kids are going back to school, families are getting back into a routine, and it's the last big push of summer. Buyers, sellers, and REALTORS® are human beings too, so the weekend can feel relatively quiet for real estate. That doesn't mean the market stops, and sometimes that quiet is where opportunity exists. But Alex won't promise less competition or better deals, because there isn't one Rhode Island housing market. Cumberland, Smithfield, Pawtucket, and Lincoln each behave differently, and so do different price ranges in the same town.

In this episode:

• What actually happens to the market over Labor Day weekend
• Why Alex doesn't believe in luck, and what "preparation meeting opportunity" looks like in practice
• Know your budget, know your needs, know your wants. They're not always the same thing
• Whether to wait until after Labor Day, and what to expect from open houses
• Enjoy life, one day at a time. Go to the cookout. There will always be another decision to make
