Well it’s been a few days since you have heard from us – that’s because this fall has been incredibly busy! The cooler weather (finally!) has gotten the buyers moving and buying! Two of the properties we listed in the last 30 days are already under contract! So if you have been considering selling – let’s talk because we need more homes to sell! Here are some great reasons to sell during the holidays…
- People who look at property during the holidays are serious buyers and are ready to make a decision.
- Serious buyers have fewer homes to choose from during the holidays, so property has less competition.
- Houses “show better” when decorated for the holidays with the wonderful lights and festive colors.
- Buyers are more emotional during the holidays and often base their decision on the warmth and good feeling they receive when viewing your house.
- Buyers may have more time to look for a house during the holidays because they have designated time off from work to purchase.
- Many people want to buy before the end of the year for financial and tax reasons.
- January is traditionally the month for transfers. Transferees can’t wait until spring to buy. Your house must be on the market to capture these buyers.
- You may restrict showings during your own personal family events and still take advantage of your spruced up and decorated “show ready” house.
- You can sell now, but specify a delayed closing or extend occupancy until early next year if you so desire and if agreeable to the other party.
- By selling now you have an opportunity to buy as a non-contingent buyer during the spring, when more properties are on the market.
- You know a successful Realtor that can give you all the information you need to make the best decision for your family and help you accomplish your real estate goals!
