In late 2016, I was 7 months pregnant with our first and the impending need for a home was becoming more and more apparent with each pang of discomfort and nausea. We quickly realized that no one else looking was quite as motivated as we were. And once the right property materialized that same week, we did not hesitate to dive headlong into one of the most satisfying experiences of my adult life- the purchase of our family home.The Holidays are an especially magical time to nest!

Thinking about listing your home during the holidays? Here’s what you need to know:

THE PROS:
• Buyers are typically more serious and motivated
• Less competition from other sellers
• Homes show beautifully with festive decorations
• Corporate relocations often happen in January (buyers need to move fast!)

THE CONS:
• Generally fewer buyers browsing the market
• Holiday schedules can make showings tricky
• Weather challenges in some areas
• People are focused on holiday spending

Key Insight: While you might see less overall activity, the buyers who ARE looking tend to be ready to make decisions quickly. Quality over quantity!

The holiday market isn’t right for everyone, but it can work beautifully for sellers who price strategically and are flexible with showings.

Every situation is unique, and market conditions vary by location. What works in your area might surprise you!
