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!
