Why You Should List Your Metro Atlanta Home Before the Holidays
The holidays are just around the corner here in Atlanta and if you’ve been thinking about selling your home, now is not the time to sit back and relax. Yes, it may seem like the busy holiday hustle and bustle can get in the way of a successful home sale—in fact, many Atlanta area homeowners think waiting until after is best—but the truth is, there are dozens of perks to listing this time of year.
As your Metro Atlanta real estate experts, Heineck & Company is happy to share below a few of the many reasons to list your Brookhaven, Buckhead, Dunwoody, Sandy Springs, Roswell or Alpharetta area home as we embark on the holiday season:
Buyers are relocating
Many buyers in the market during the holidays are relocating, perhaps starting a new job position on or after the first of the year. By listing your Alpharetta, Buckhead, Brookhaven, Dunwoody, Roswell, or Sandy Springs home now, you will be able to capture this motivated slice of the market who has a strict timeline for settling into a new property. These buyers will be looking to purchase a home before their new job begins or to allow their children to start school in the new year.
Buyers are serious
Whether for relocation purposes or otherwise, buyers in the real estate market during the holidays are typically both motivated and serious about purchasing a property. As you know, spring and summer tend to be some of the busiest months in real estate, so listing your home now allows you to pique interest among this group of buyers that is browsing available homes before the competition re-enters the market.
Your home will look its best
Did you know that homes tend to show better during the holidays? Just think about the holiday decor you see around other homes in Metro Atlanta! This season tends to evoke cozy feelings in buyers and can bring forth a charming side of your home that doesn’t always get attention throughout the rest of the year. So if you’re planning to list your home within the next month, you may want to spend a little more time on your decorating plan.
There is less competition
As a home seller in Metro Atlanta during the holidays, you will have less competition than you would at other points during the year. What does this mean? It’s an opportunity to have your home take center stage among the few other properties that buyers can choose from. A smaller inventory of homes for sale means yours has the chance to truly stand out in the crowd.
Do not hesitate to contact Heineck & Company with any questions you have about selling your home in the Brookhaven, Buckhead, Dunwoody, Sandy Springs or Alpharetta areas this holiday season or for more information about the Metro Atlanta real estate market.
