Should We Reduce the Price on Our Long Island Home During the Holidays?
It depends upon if you are priced right to begin with and how soon you want to go to closing. If you are planning on a January/February closing then reduce the price of your Long Island home now so you can a buyer this month or in December.
If you know you are overpriced and have had very little showings or not showings at all, then by all means reduce the price! Your Long Island real estate agent will be thrilled you came to your senses :)
The holidays are funny year after year. Usually this time of the year it can be on the slow side for some agents. For me, it's been non-stop. I even showed one of my listings 2 days before Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving Eve this year.
I worked with buyers last year that I showed homes to the day before Christmas Eve. January 2012, I was still busy with buyers and sellers. Who knows what this holiday season will bring as well as the beginning of 2013.
Do what your agent and your gut tells you to do and pay attention to your move out time-frame.
