Holiday Home Selling

"The stockings were hung by the chimney with care..."

There's no doubt that right now is one of the best times to buy a home in all of history. A lot of people wanting to sell right now may be hesitant because of the holidays, or because of cold, snowy weather. Traditional thinking people may even argue that homes only sell in the Spring and Summer months.

I challenge them with these thoughts...

When does your home look it's best? Most people's homes during the holiday season are kept immaculately clean (for those guests that'll arrive any minute) and decorated fabulously! The smells of roasted Chex Mix, mixed with pine and holiday feasts... who can think of a more welcoming smell?

I think as long as you keep the decorations classy and sensible, and don't go overboard (as a lot of us tend to do!) the holiday season is THE BEST time to sell!

I've sold many homes that were charming to begin with, but I showed them during the holidays and buyers are awed by the charm of the season!

So don't think that just because it's Winter that you should wait to sell until Spring. Deck the halls and put on some classic holiday music and wait for the buyers to come!

If you need help decorating for the holidays, consult a professional home stager,

interior designer or your Realtor!
