Many homeowners in Delaware and Pennsylvania believe spring and summer are the best, if not the only, time to sell— but that is not always the case! In fact, it is this idea that brings a wave of new inventory to the market every spring and thus, increases competition among home sellers!

Instead, consider the benefits of selling your home during the holidays or the winter season, in general. There are numerous factors that make this time of year one of the best to move on and the Kat Geralis Home Team is happy to share a few with you below!

The lack of competition
Just as I mentioned above, there are simply fewer homes for sale in Delaware and Pennsylvania during the winter months. Because many homeowners prepare and renovate their homes in the winter in order to list in the spring, the inventory tends to remain on the lower side this time of year. By selling your home now, you can give your home more time in the spotlight than any other time of year!

Buyers are more likely to notice your home now as they will have fewer properties to overwhelm them!

Buyers are ready to move
Just before the start of the new year, homebuyers in Delaware and Pennsylvania grow increasingly motivated to change their scenery and settle into a new home. Or they may have a strong reason to— job changes and relocation are two common factors for moving into a new home before the new year.

Holiday decor
While we may not have any snow in Delaware and Pennsylvania, the holiday season does evoke magical feelings for buyers. Seeing properties lit up at night or draped in festive greenery can help buyers feel more at home and see themselves (and their own decorations!) in the new space. Listing your home this time of year can play to your advantage simply due to the charm of the season.

Remember, if you're thinking about waiting until spring to sell your home in Delaware or Pennsylvania, so is everybody else! Contact the Kat Geralis Home Team today to discuss how you can take advantage of the winter season by listing now!
