While we can’t deny that the spring and summer markets are historically the busiest, there are unexpected benefits to selling your home in the winter if it makes sense for your situation.
-
Serious buyers: Quite literally, fairweather buyers aren’t looking for a home in the winter. Your winter listing will more likely attract more serious buyers who are committed to moving.
-
Chance to highlight ‘cozy’ features: Showcase a lovely fireplace, fun theater room, or sunroom that brings in light year-round.
-
Less competition: Winter may bring fewer buyers, but fewer homes are for sale too. This means your listing will have less competition.
-
(A different type of) beautiful photos: A snow-covered setting can be beautiful if you didn’t get some landscaping projects done this fall or live in a wooded area.
Reach out and we’ll give you our honest opinion if it makes sense to move now, or wait for warmer months ahead based on your goals.
