Here in Greenville, we experience seasonality like the majority of other markets. The good news? This seasonality, which translates to a natural fluctuation in home buying + selling based on time of year, can actually contribute to strong results for those looking to sell their homes during the holiday season.

According to the National Association of Realtors, the average seller received four offers on their house in September, due to a number of factors, including low inventory; meaning those who decide to sell their house this season will likely have multiple offers to pick from. If you’re on the fence about when to sell, think of it this way: Your house is a hot commodity this holiday season.

While other sellers may look to take a break for the holidays + plan to re-list in the new year, it can be smart to put your house in front of motivated buyers by making your move now, say the expert agents at CB Caine. 🏡

Benefits of selling your home over the holidays:

  • Homes show well during the holiday season (read: a home with extra holiday cheer inside means a warm experience for homeshoppers)
  • Mortgage rates are low
  • Inventory remains tight
  • Those looking to make purchases right now are serious + engaged buyers

Bottom line? A tight inventory market can mean options for those selling.
