A lot of people think that the real estate market freezes over in the winter, especially during the Holidays. However, this is not true, and the winter can actually be a great time to sell for some people.
Here are three reasons why this is true:
- Buyers are very serious in the winter. They often have to buy because of a job transfer, or for tax purposes. When buyers are more motivated, you can expect a quicker sale and probably a better price for your home if they have to buy quickly. Some buyers are desperate to purchase a home because of tax reasons or because of a job transfer. This puts you in a good position as a seller.
- There isn't as much competition during the Holidays. A lot of sellers think that it's a bad time to sell a home, so they take it off the market. This means that your home has a better chance to stand out and sell quickly! The supply of listings increases dramatically in January, so the time to sell is now before everyone else puts their home on the market.
- You can sell now and we can provide you with a delayed closing or an extended occupancy so that you can stay in your home throughout the New Year.
- We can also restrict showings during Christmas and New Years. We realize you want to spend this time with friends and family, and we believe that buyers understand this as well.
The Holidays really are a great time to sell a home, it's just that selling during this time doesn't match conventional wisdom. If you've been wanting to sell your home, please don't hesitate to contact my team. We can help you sell quickly and for top dollar!
