Should I Wait Until Spring To Sell My house?
Of course this answer depends on your personal timeline. It’s true, there generally is less activity in the real estate market during the winter months. However, it’s a myth that homes don’t sell during the winter. There are some benefits to buying or selling during the winter. The main benefit is less competition. If you are a seller, there are fewer houses on the market, which means you have less competition. Also, winter buyers tend to be more serious buyers (they aren’t out just browsing). If you are a buyer, you have fewer competing buyers out there bidding against you. Last year, believe it or not, we sold several houses between Thanksgiving and Christmas. So, if it’s the right time for you, don’t hesitate to do a real estate transaction this winter.
