Some people think that the holidays aren’t a good time to list, but this is just a myth.
Traditionally, sales are down in our Chicago area by just 15% to 20% around this time of year. This means that there are still active buyers right now who need your home on the market to buy.
So, what are the top reasons to list your home with this holiday season?
First, many buyers are on the market at this time of year specifically for tax reasons. There are also fewer homes on the market to compete with. This means your listing will see more demand, which means you may earn more money.
If you wait until January or later to list, you’ll be dealing with a much higher level of competition.
Another reason to list over the holidays is that buyers at this time of year are more serious. These people are not only looking at fewer homes, they’re also going to be making faster decisions.
Finally, there are a number of buyers being relocated for their careers over the holiday season. If you want to take advantage of these relocation buyers, you’ll need to be on the market at the end of the year.
There are a number of other reasons you should think about listing over the holidays. To see the full list, click here.
