What benefits do sellers get by listing in the winter? Today I wanted to outline the top three for you.
Happy New Year! I hope you had a wonderful holiday season with your family and loved ones.
Now that 2017 is in full swing, I wanted to take a moment to talk about selling your home during the off-season—the wintertime and the springtime.
If you're selling your house, you need to know that interest rates are rising. This means there will be a smaller buyer pool to purchase your home and less competition to get you a better sales price.
However, you will face less competition as a seller during the off-season. There will be fewer homes similar to yours in your neighborhood for sale for you to compete against due to the winter season.
Thirdly, sellers need to remember that the people looking to buy this time of year are motivated buyers. They aren't kicking tires or looking at houses during the holiday season because they lack motivation.
These are the top reasons for sellers to be on the market this time of year, but if you're looking for more reasons or you're ready to sell your house, give me a call or send me an email. I'd be happy to help you out!
