Why List Now!
Reasons to List Your Home During the Holidays
- Fewer Showings ~ Yes there are fewer buyers, but those buyers that are left are usually very serious about making a purchase. You may have fewer showings but great prospects!
- Less Competition ~ Most people wait until spring and summer to list their home, which means during the winter you will have far less competition than any other time of the year.
- Homes Show Better During the Holiday ~ Buyers love homes that can tell a story. The holidays are a great time to show homes because the home is usually dressed up for the holiday season.
- January is the Biggest Transfer Month ~ Did you know that more corporate moves happen during January than any other time of the year? This may be a great reason to list you home during the holiday season!
- Timing ~ By putting the home on the market during the winter you may be able to more easily hit your moving goals.
- More Time to Get Top Dollar ~ By starting to market your home early you may be able to secure a higher price.
- Great Time to Shop ~ If your home sells quickly you will be able to shop for your next home during the winter. This is a great time to find a bargain.
- More Advertising ~ Because most agents and offices have less inventory during the winter, your home may be advertised more often than during the spring and summer months!
- More Attention ~ Most agents will be able to devote more specialized attention to your needs during the winter because they have less clients to manage.
- The Market ~ Today’s interest rates are at forty-year lows. This gives buyers more spending power, and will be even more important when you begin shopping for your next home.
- Tax Benefits ~ By selling now you can have a closing after the first of the year for tax purposes.
- Loan Commitment ~ During the winter months you may be able to obtain a loan commitment quicker.
- Historic Low Interest Rates ~ More buyers can afford your home now with today’s rates.
- Highest Percentage ~ We usually have the highest percentage of listings sold to listings taken during this time of the year
