Will Santa Bring A Buyer?
Ho! Ho! Ho!

Will Santa Bring Me a Buyer?
If I list my home now, during the holiday season, will Santa bring me a
qualified buyer, or a lump of coal?
There are there two schools of thought on listing your home during this
season (1) it adds a big amount of stress to an already stressful time (2) only
serious buyers look at this time of year!
So, yes, it adds stress to your life during this busy season, but your home
is decorated and showing its best so why not let buyers see it! You could
even use it as an excuse for an out of town trip - the house will stay looking
lovely and you won't be interrupted with showings - or maybe tell those holiday
visitors "not this year the house is on the market"!
Yes, there will probably be less activity during this busy time, but those
that do go out and look at homes are serious, ready to buy, buyers! And
other people have taken their homes off the market so there is less "stock" for
serious buyers to consider! Yes, Virginia! Companies still relocate
employees and it is not uncommon for those transfers to happen during this
season, companies want the transferred employee to be moved to the new location
and settled in so they ready to take the reins January 1st!
Bottom line - decorate the house, place the sign, sit on Santa's lap and ask
for a buyer this year!
Oh by the way......make a note to take "fresh" pictures of the house after
the holiday decorations come down!
Happy December,
