Are The Holidays A Good Time To Buy Or Sell Real Estate In The ...

?

This is a question I have been asked by both buyers and sellers for many years. The Christmas season is here and buyers and sellers often think that this is not the time to buy or sell real estate.

It?s the most wonderful time of the year. Literally. This year especially.

The holidays tend to bring out the most serious buyers. If a buyer is willing to add house hunting to the ever growing list of to-do?s that happen this time of year, then they are serious. With interest rates at historic lows and aggressive pricing- it?s the perfect storm for home buyers. And what a great Christmas present! And don?t forget that a move during the holidays often works well since many have more time off this time of year, making for a smoother transition. For those buyers with children, the holiday break is a great time to make a school change.

Sellers can also take advantage of this wonderful time of year. I recommend not putting off listing and not taking homes off the market during the holidays. Homes look so beautiful when they are tastefully decorated for the season. And remember, the most serious buyers tend to look during the holidays. Brokers can arrange showings that won?t interfere with family gatherings while still taking advantage of this often overlooked opportunity. With inventory at their lowest in years, this is the perfect time to market your home.

So, get into the Holiday Home Spirit. Let me know if you need assistance buying or selling your home in the greater Seattle/Everett region.

Happy Holidays!!!
