HOME SALES ARE EXPECTED TO SPIKE DURING THE HOLIDAY SEASON. Experts agree that the Holiday season tends to put buyers inthe right mind set for making offers on homes. It has a simialr effect on sellers who tend to be more flexible during the holidays. A charitable mindset allows for compromise, and compromise he key to achieving a successful sale.

THERE IS NO LIKE HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS...

Sweetening up sales this holiday season is the added benefit of the $8000 tax credit for first time home buyers

HOME PURCHASED BEFORE DEC 31, 2009 CAN DEDUCT CLOSING COSTS

Parents can contribute GIFT Money upto $10,000 without a tax penalty.

The holidays are a time when more people tend to be out looking at neighborhoods- it is also a time when offers have the greatest chance of acceptance.

THINKING OF BUYING OR SELLING?

NOW MAY BE THE BEST TIME TO MAKE YOUR MOVE.

Happy Holidays!

I always tell people that December is the best time to buy. Sellers are more flexible and banks are often super motivated to get a foreclosure off the books before the tax year ends.

I wish the same was true for our area. The holiday season is our slowest time of the year. We are expecting a big Spring and for it to start earlier in the year than our usual April. Get a jump on these clients if you have them! Thanks for the post.
