Holiday Home Shopping
I hope you’re doing great! The holiday season is usually a slow time for real estate sales, but there are some good reasons to consider buying a home now.
Less Competition
Many buyers hold off until the spring to get out there and start looking at homes. If fewer buyers are in the market now, that could mean less competition for serious buyers!
Sellers Are Motivated
Sellers that put their house on the market during the holidays usually have a good reason to do so. Whether they need to relocate, or are looking for tax benefits, sellers may be more compelled to negotiate the price and terms when fewer buyers are beating a path to their doors.
Is the Home Weatherproof?
Viewing a home in inclement weather may reveal how well the home holds up in winter. This is an opportunity to check for roof leaks, poor drainage, drafts, or heating issues. 
More Accessible Service
All real estate agents would love to sell a house before the end of the year, and you may find they are more pro-active to execute a quick, smooth closing. You may also have easier access to appraisers, inspectors, and moving companies at this time of year.
