As Christmas approaches, you may be wondering whether now is a good time to sell your home. Ultimately, there is no one-size-fits-all approach to home selling, and choosing when to put your property up for sale is a personal choice that should be based on your own unique circumstances. For me though, I love the selling period over the holiday season – here’s why!
You should end up with a great price
If you plan your strategy carefully, you could end up selling your home for a fantastic price. The number of properties for sale tends to fall over the festive season, reducing the levels of competition between sellers and increasing those amongst buyers.
Of course, some areas see higher levels of competition amongst buyers than others, so it is worth doing your research before settling on a time to sell. Bulimba is an example of an area that you could see great profits from selling over the holiday season. If you’re curious about how your house could perform on the current market, make sure to give me a call. I can give you the latest knowledge on the selling climate and how profitable your sale can be!
Buyers tend to be more serious about making a purchase over the holidays
Most of the buyers searching for a new home around Christmas want to move in before the start of a new year. In this way, they tend to be more keen on snapping up a property quickly and efficiently. With less settlement time, you have more time to focus on summer time fun!
People are usually jollier over Christmas
It may seem like a cliché, but buyers are often feeling particularly festive and joyful over the holiday period. Combined with a sunny summer climate, this Christmassy feeling can make your property seem particularly inviting. Just remember to add a few tasteful decorations!
Be settled by the time school starts
By selling your property over the holiday period, you won’t have to navigate the hassle of sale while juggling work and school pickups and drop offs. Glide into the school year with the knowledge that you’re exactly where you need to be!
