Let's face it- The Holidays are a stressful time of year. From November 15th to January 2nd we are wrapped up in grocery lists, extended family visits, and party planning. BUT! If you have an ounce of time to dedicate to buying a home, now is the perfect time... here's a few reasons why! 1. Less competition... Most buyers take November & December off from house hunting, allowing you to slide in and have your offer accepted without bidding against other families! 2. Motivated (if not, desperate) Sellers... Whether it's relocation, tax benefits, or needing an excuse to NOT host extended family this year, November & December sellers are motivated with a capital M! Motivated sellers mean more negotiating power! 3. Speaking of Tax Advantages... Homeownership brings many tax perks- and for those who didn't realize, can work in favor of both buyers & sellers. Talk with your Tax professional to see if you are able to write off your mortgage interest & property taxes! 4. Tis' the Season, After All... Homes always look marvelous with fresh blooming flowers & warm sunshine flooding in... But, with colder weather comes rain & dim, cloudy days. This is a great time to see what a property will look like in the not-so-glamorous (and not so sunny) months. 5. True, Hardworking Professionals at your Disposal... It's no surprised that many Real Estate Agents slow down, or stop working all together during the Holidays. I mean, we ARE human too... But, this also means that the Agents who ARE working are the ones who will put you first and bend over backwards to get you into your new home! Want to search for your perfect home?
