Do We List at the start of 2018 or Hold Off Until Spring?
Real estate sales during the winter season have seen an upswing in recent years. Research indicates this trend is due to holiday gatherings offering families the opportunity to discuss future needs without the interference of hectic work and daily schedules. And, of course, as we all know the New Year offers the feeling of a fresh start!
The Advantage of Listing in Early 2018
Worried about Missing the Spring Market?
Many buyers are out looking for homes in the new year, whether they are re-energizing their search from last year or they made the decision to move during the holiday season. Several companies also relocate their employees around at the start of the year, creating an additional demand for homes.
No one can predict the future, though if you wait until everyone else lists their home in the spring, your home may not see the exposure you are expecting, especially if there is lower demand!
Even with these new trends, the winter season inventory is still generally lower and therefore, your home will actually receive more exposure to serious buyers, which can lead to a quicker sale and higher price. Friends and Neighbors, For more information on the best time to list your Pimmit Hills home, contact me today at 703-850-9663. I wish you a delightful and prosperous new year!

Real Estate Market Report
Why List Your Home Now? So why do you have a huge advantage as a seller right now? Because the winter months bring buyers who are determined to find a home. The buyers looking for a home during these cold months are serious about moving. They are not “browsing homes,” “getting decorating ideas,” or in the mindset of, “Maybe I will buy if the right home pops up.” Studies show that children moved during the school year can actually do better with the transfer than those who are moved over the summer. They are given special attention because EVERYONE is aware they are a new student, as opposed to
www.PimmitHillsLiving.com starting a new school in September when all students are in new classes, and ALL children are experiencing a new situation. Students new to a school system in September can get lost among the transition of current students. But one of the most important reasons for NOW is home prices are UP and there are only a small number of homes on the market available to buyers looking right now. Supply and demand is working in YOUR FAVOR! And moving to a new school during the year can work in your children’s favor too!
