Best Time To Sell Your Edmonton Home Is Now

edmonton homes for sale mls listings

Always, there’s that never dying question whether to keep your Edmonton house on the market or not this holiday season. The last thing on homebuyers’ mind and priority list is buying a new home, right? This is one of the main reason why most Edmontonians prefer to remove their home listings from the MLS temporarily and just wait it out until the New Year.

Before you jump into the bandwagon, here’s a few pointers that you might change just your mind.

First and foremost, the amount of listings on the market significantly drops, there are ever so few new homes for sale in this time of the year which means fewer competition on your side of the business. The fewer competition, the better chances your home will be sold faster.

Second, during the holiday season, home buyers are more motivated to spend. And these home buyers are typically the ones that are really serious about buying-they’re not the window shopping type. They would not waste your time.

Lastly, companies usually transfer employees in the first quarter of the New Year, these employees usually chose to buy homes right away because they can’t wait. Since Edmonton’s economy is on the rise, you’ll see more of this kind of transactions.

As a bonus, the winter months make homes better for open houses because the decorations pop-out, the fire place makes it warm and cozy (selling point right there) and the smell of cookies baking just make it irresistible!
