The holiday season is undoubtedly one of the busiest times of the year. From gatherings with friends and family, shopping, decorating, even traveling, perhaps the last thing Chetek WI homeowners want to think about is adding a home sale into the mix. But before you write off the holidays as bad timing for selling your Wisconsin home, you will want to consider the following reasons why it can be one of the best opportunities to find a buyer:
Less competition
Did you know that the majority of homeowners think spring and summer are the best times to sell a home? This does play to your advantage as listing your home now means you will have much less competition. While the weather may be ideal for hopping from property to property in the spring and summer, buyers today are constantly searching for the right place to call home, no matter the season! Don’t wait until the new year to list your Chetek WI home or you could risk your home being lost in all of the new inventory that will make its way to the market.
Buyers are out
As I said above, today’s buyers never stop looking for the right property. Whether on their smartphones or via property alerts in their email, if a home comes on the real estate market that meets a buyer’s criteria, it doesn’t matter what time of year it is— they are ready to make a move to become the next owner! Don’t let your ideas about when homebuyers shop hold you back from landing a great deal by selling during the holidays.
Your home shows well
The holidays are a time of year when emotions run high, including the desire to find a cozy home to settle down in during these colder months. By making your home look festive, inviting, and warm, you can take advantage of this special time to find the right buyer in the City of Lakes! Simply adding a few simple decorations and tasteful lights can do wonders for buyers and allow them to envision their own holidays spent in the home.
Our team at Six Lakes Realty is ready to help you sell your Chetek WI home, just in time to celebrate the new year! Give us a call today for more information about your home value and preparing your property for today’s buyers.
