7 Reasons to List During the Holidays!

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Hamm Homes

I hear so many times that over the holidays no one wants to sell buy or move.  I happen to think that is a myth.  The holidays are the perfect time to set yourself apart from your competition and to get a jump on your 2018 year.

Here are some reasons to list during the holiday season.  

  • While there may Be less buyers out there, people who look for homes are serious during the holiday season.
  • Less homes on the holiday season to look at and agents cut back their hours doing the season so more for you to work.
  • Of course, homes look better when decorated for the holidays, whether Thanksgiving or Christmas.
  • Many buyers have more time to look for homes during the holidays.

Good way to end the year and start 2018 to be a great year!

Hi Will --- when the timing is right with the seller and everything is in place to achieve success, it's a good to list(and sell) a home.

In many markets the holidays keep going strong and sellers sell and buyers buy.

Couldn't agree more Will!  Buyers looking during the holidays need housing.
