Do I take my home off the market in the Winter?
For Parker Colorado Real Estate Brokers the yearly question every broker is asked…
“Do we take the house off the market in the winter months?”
The yearly question every broker is asked “do we want to take the house off the market in the winter months?”
What is the answer?
- Buyers that are out looking between September and March are usually very serious buyers. They are not “tire kickers.”
- Inventory is low since many sellers buy into the myth that they need to take the house of the market in the winter.
- Low inventory + serious buyers = a great opportunity to sell a home or real estate.
- Fewer “tire kickers” means fewer showings = less interruptions and house cleaning. Again, serious buyers will be looking.
- Serious buyers usually = relocation buyers or people that have already sold their home and need to find a replacement home quickly.
- Relocation buyers usually close very quickly and you know they have a Company behind them so they will be prepared and ready to close the deal.
- Fewer real estate transactions are taking place at this time so Realtors, title companies and inspectors have less pressure and more time to dedicate to your transaction.
- It isn’t as hot outside. Fall in Colorado is the most beautiful time of the year so buyers really enjoy getting out and looking for homes.
” I advise you to continue actively marketing your home for sale in the winter.”
