Is this really the best time?
Should I wait until the holiday season past?
Maybe the new year is when I should start showing my home?
CityDwellers believes that the holiday season, although a stressful time, can be a great time to sell a house, and to sell it quickly and painlessly. In our experience some of the great reasons you should place your house on the marketing during the month of December are:
There is less competition
Most people don’t want the hassle of the holiday season and selling a house. With a great realty company and extra dose of patience, the holiday season provides a low competition market. Which means you don’t have to compete with dozens of other homes like in the springtime. This is amazing news for you, because ..
You can make more money
People take their homes off the market around this time! The supply of homes decrease, yet there is still a demand. Less supply and more demand means more money for you.
Buyers are serious and motivated
Anyone who takes time away from their family and love ones, to look a new home is serious about buying NOW. Issues can arise in flexibility in showing times and negotiating the terms of contracts, but the holidays seem to make everyone a little more giving and kinder.
People are more emotional during the holidays
It’s just something about the holiday season that gets people all emotional! These emotions are beneficial for you, because these emotional people are spending more money. They are more than likely to spend more money with you on your house.
Your house looks great this time of year
Who doesn’t like Christmas trees, stockings, and mistletoes! The holiday season provides the perfect opportunity for you to show a cozy, cheery, beautifully decorated home. Seasonal decorations allow families to visualize themselves celebrating the holidays there next year
