Search all homes for sale.There are six compelling reasons to list your home for sale now rather than waiting for the spring or summer that I wanted to share today:Less competition. A lot of people who couldn't sell during the summer take their home off the market in the winter and won't list again until spring when they think the most buyers are on the market. If you're the only one on the market doing the opposite of what everyone else is doing, you’ll have a competitive advantage.Job relocation. Lots of companies do their relocations at the end of the year and plan out where their employees will go for the following year. In this case, a lot of these employees enter the market and need to close a deal right away. If your home is one of the few on the market, you'll have a much better chance of working with a relocation buyer who needs to make a deal. Landscaping isn't as big of an issue. Once it snows, your landscaping has a clean slate. It can hide some of the blemishes or imperfections, and you don't have to worry about cutting grass or maintaining your flowers and mulch. Buyers are more serious. You will have fewer showings, but the buyers who you show your home to will be more qualified and more serious about buying.Statistics show that in the winter, you get a better sale price for your home.Your home will sell quicker than it will in the spring.Winter buyers are far more serious about getting a deal done. If you have any further questions about selling a home in the winter, I'd be happy to answer them. Just give me a call or send me an email today. I look forward to hearing from you!
