**Top 10 Reasons To List Your House During The Holidays**

 .

Every year I hear from sellers that the holidays are not a good time to sell a home.  The unbelievable part is, it's one of the best times of years to make a move! 

Here are the top 10 reasons to make a move during the holidays:

1. People who are spending their time looking at property during the holidays are MOTIVATED serious buyers and are more ready to make a move!
2. Many sellers are going to wait until after the holidays to list their homes which means less competition for your home.
3. Houses "show better" when tastefully decorated for the holidays with the pretty lights and festive colors associated with the season.
4. Buyers are more emotional during the holidays and often base their decision on the warmth and good feeling they receive when viewing a home.
5. Buyers have more time to look for a house during the holidays because many people have time off from work to purchase a home.
6. Many people want to buy before the end of the year for financial and tax reasons.
7. January is traditionally the month for job transfers. Transferees can't wait until the spring to buy and these buyers need a home now.
8. Many home buyers dedicate a larger portion of their house hunting time during the holidays to searching online, but if your home is not on the market it won't be seen.
9. You can have a daily showing schedule, create blackout dates, and take calls around your holiday events .
10. Many buyers want to be in a new home for Christmas. Maybe that is your goal? A bigger home, living room, dining room for the family.
