8 Reasons Why You SHOULD List Your Home During the Holidays!

How many times have you heard from friends, family or even Realtors that the winter season is slow or no one wants to buy during the holidays? Especially in Charleston's market where new businesses continue to move into Charleston and people are constantly relocating, the real estate market never slows and those buyers, especially, don't take a break from buying as they need to find a home - they are the serious buyers you want.

8. Even though your house will be on the market, you still have the option to restrict showings during the six or seven days around the Holidays. 
 7. January is traditionally the month for employees to begin new jobs. Since transfers cannot wait until Spring to buy, you need to be on the market during the Holidays to capture the market. 
 6. Some people must buy before the end of the year for tax reasons. 
 5. Buyers have more time to look for a home during the Holidays than they do during a work week. 
 4. Buyers are more emotional during the Holidays, so they are more likely to pay your price. 
 3. Since the supply of listings will dramatically increase in January, there will be less demand for your particular home. Less demand means LESS money for you. 
 2. Serious buyers have fewer houses to choose from during the Holidays and less competition means more money for you. And the number one reason why your seller should list during the Holidays … 
 1. People who look for homes during the Holidays are more serious buyers!

Are you ready to list your home?  Contact me for a FREE, NO OBLIGATION Comparative Market Analysis on your home and find out how I can sell your home quickly and for the most money in today's present market.

Adorable, Totally Renovated in Popular Park Circle


Completely remodeled home in the hottest neighborhood in the Lowcountry and at a great price. This two bedroom home is all new inside and out. There is a new roof, new paint inside & out, new windows, new carpet & tile flooring, new cabinets & countertops in the kitchen, all new high end stainless steel appliances ( gas range), new gas tankless hot water heater and more. The owner has installed a new second bathroom and completely remodeled the other bathroom as well. The master bathroom has a walk in shower and the second bathroom has a Jacuzzi tub. Master has a double vanity and both have new energy efficient toilets. There is even a built in computer desk off of the kitchen. My favorite part of this wonderful home is the extremely private breakfast patio underneath the most gorgeous Grand Oak in all of Park Circle. The back yard is very large, semi private and has plenty of room for your boat that you can put in the water just a couple of miles away at a public boat landing into the Cooper River. All of this in a very centrally located area of Charleston and in a very popular area. You can walk to downtown Park Circle and the new waterfront park is a short bike ride away. The average time that a new, well priced listing is on the market in this area is about three days so you should move quickly.
