5 Top Reasons to sell during the Holidays

David, that SERIOUS buyer one is the one I hear a lot. The market is what the market is, and if you want to sell your house ANYTIME put it on the market.

Great post David.

Wishing you continued success.

Great list, especially the part about being decorated for the holidays.

David - you are absolutely right about this. If a serious seller price their property right, does not matter what season, a serious buyer will come and buy the property.

So true!  I too think that the serious buyer is looking during the Holidays and therefore what you say above perhaps applies.  Thanks for the post and the tips today.

David,

And, don't forget about commercial real estate. There may be many tax advantages associated with completing a transaction by 31 December, rather than the 1st of January.

David  - All you said is simply true. Agents and sellers who don't think they'll sell during the holidays - usually don't.

Glad to see positives for sellers during the holidays...  Buyers are still out there!!!

Excellent David! There is so much to love about a new home during the holidays..the decorations, lights, etc..

Hi David -- Exceptional advice.  I hope a lot of sellers read this as these points are often not well understood.  People are generally in a better mood around the holidays as well.

Nice ! Some great advice...and great name you have - along with one of my favorite soccer players ! Cheers !

I like #2. Anyone serious enough to shop duing the holidays is going to close quickly.

I have a client who just listed a home and had a bit of a discussion about these things.

I agree, homes can be more inviting with the holiday decorations, and people are generally in a good mood.  And serious too if they're out during the holidays when there's so many other things to do!

I had some listings just come on the market and I'm banking on these 5 things getting them sold.

It take motivation on both the buyer and seller -- need both. I know working with buyers that it seems that everything is based on schools-.

There is never a bad time to be listed.

great pointers
