I’m “Open” For Business During The Holiday Selling Season

 

There’s always a lot of discussion about the advantages(or disadvantages) of selling your home during the holidays.   The pros and the cons have been weighed for years. We hear there are fewer buyers but those who are “out there” I'm Open For Business During The Holiday Selling Season - Realtor Michael Jacobs 818.516.4393are truly focused on buying.

 

Relocations don’t necessarily stop during the holidays nor do other life changing events.   Less competition of homes on the market for sale can mean your home can stand out in a less crowded field.   

 

I sometimes wonder if sellers(and buyers) may be given a message from the real estate community that they should wait to put their home on the market or to begin a home search until the beginning of the new year.  Do you think some agents prefer to be doing other things  rather than preparing paperwork, planning advertising, arranging photography and videos to ensure a home is ready to put on the market during the holiday season? Maybe a vacation - spending family time - shopping always more shopping - perhaps baking or getting into the festivities of the season -- there are certainly lots of distractions to contend with.   

 

I enjoy those things too but I’m letting you know -- I’m “Open” For Business During The Holiday Selling Season.   In fact, over the years this season has brought many presents for my clients who have decided to sell or purchase during the season.  Yes, the competition is less for you as a buyer or seller and sometimes for me too as some agents “shut the door to business”.   So if you are in the market for selling or purchasing real estate - I’m “Open” for your business.

Hi Michael - Like you, we're open for business as well. We have always found the holidays to be anything but a quiet time for real estate, and never discourage our clients from using the additional flexibility of their schedules during this season to include real estate in their holiday wishes.

Michael,

We loved the holidays in commercial real estate.  Most agents flew the coop the last two weeks of December, and we made out like bandits, there was always business to be done...LOL. A

Smart approach, Michael.  For many buyers and sellers, now is the perfect time.  And, for some, this is an easier time for them to house hunt as their activities may have wound down.

Hi Michael, smart decision! Less competition works to seller's advantage, buyers have more free time to preview homes so last month of the year around the holidays is a great time to buy and sell homes.

I believe(and know) there are opportunities in any real estate market but have found many people including some agents think of the holiday season as one where there is no activity -- not true -- this can be an exciting time to buy or sell.   

Thanks for stopping by and commenting.  Here's to a successful and happy season.
