11 Great Reasons to List Your Home During the Holidays

  • Some people must buy before the end of the year for tax reasons!
  • January is traditionally the month for employees to begin new jobs. Since transferees cannot wait until spring to buy, you must be on the market now to capture that market!
  • You can still be on the market, but you have the option to restrict showings during the six or seven days during the holidays!
  • You can sell now for more money and we will provide for a delayed closing or extend occupancy until early next year!
  • By selling now, you may have an opportunity to be a non-contingent buyer during the spring, when many more houses are on the market for less money! This will allow you to sell high and buy low!
  • People who look for a home during the holidays are more serious buyers!
  • Serious buyers have fewer houses to choose from during the holidays, less competition means more money for you.
  • Since the supply of listings will dramatically increase in January, there will be less demand for your particular home! Less demand means less money for you!
  • Houses show better when decorated for the holidays.
  • Buyers are more emotional during the holidays, so they are more likely to pay your price.
  • Buyers have more time to look for a home during the holidays during the weekday.
