Buying or Selling Real Estate in the Winter? Some Food For Thought For You…

Thank you for sharing....

Merry Christmas from Kaye Swain REALTOR with Keller Williams RealtySeems like a grand week to decorate my real estate and other blogs a bit for Christmas. It's perfect timing since I'll be participating in the Caregiving Holiday Progressive Blog Party at SandwichINK. And with plenty of snow in so many spots, it's got me in a Jingle Bell mood! Perfect for one of my favorite Christmas songs by Michael W. Smith, Kay Thompson's Jingle Bells. But first…

In case you are thinking of buying or selling your home or other real estate and wondering if you should wait til spring, I do have some food for thought on that topic. For starters, you will have fewer people out there buying or selling, of course. Meaning less competition either way!

The people looking to buy homes during these chilly winter months are usually very serious about buying – giving you a better chance of a solid sale that goes through to a happy and closed escrow. And the same should hold true for those selling!

Did you know that sales in winter actually go up amongst retirees! Click here to check out an interesting article from Dave Ramsey.

And did you know that the best month to buy a house is January! That's from Mark Di Vincenzo in Time – Business and Money. He also reveals his opinion of the best day and season to sell a house and more. It's a fascinating read you can enjoy if you click here. 🙂
