You migh thave heard that selling a home during the holidays may not be the best idea. It is a crazy time fo the year when we are attending parties, inviting friends over, and having family in town. Selling a home seems to be the last thing on our minds, however, it could pay off and have it’s advantages. Let’s go over why you should consider it.

1. Houses tend to show better with holiday decor.

2. Buyers are looking to buy a home towards the end of the year to take advantage fo the tax savings.

3. After the holidays the home inventory increases which lowers the demand for your home by giving buyers more of a selection.

4. Buyers looking during the holiday season tend to be more serious about buying.

5. Buyers typically have more time off during the holidays giving them more time to search for homes as apposed to a busy January work schedule.

6. Sellers have less competition due to most sellers waitign for January to put their homes on the markets.

7. Most people are transferring jobs on January, so it makes sense for them to be into their home by the end of December.

8. By selling your home now, you can buy your replacement home in the Spring when the inventory is high and you have a better selection.

There you have it. If you have been holding off to sell your home til after the holidays, here are some good reasons to reconsider.  Take advantage!
