Hi Friends,
Every holiday season I find myself in many conversations
with potential & current Seller clients about the pros & cons of having
their home listed during the holiday season. And there are times when
those clients opt to either not list OR take their home off the market.
While there are reasons why this might work best for a
family, it isn't always the wisest of choices in terms of accomplishing the
goal of selling their home.
Waiting Until After the Holidays Isn't a Smart Decision
1. Relocation buyers are out there. Companies are not concerned with holiday time and if the buyers have kids, they want them to get into school after the holidays.
2. Purchasers that are looking for a home during the holidays are serious buyers and are ready to buy.
3. You can restrict the showings on your home to the times you want it shown. You will remain in control.
4. Homes show better when decorated for the holidays.
5. There is less competition for you as a seller right now. Let’s take a look at listing inventory as compared to the same time last year:
6. The supply of listings increases substantially after the holidays. Also, in many parts of the country, new construction will make a comeback in 2016. This will lessen the demand for your house.
Just a few small reasons why you may want to consider getting your home on the market, even during the holiday season.
Let me know if you have any questions!
