You Should Add Home Buying or Selling To Your Holiday List...Why???

Happy Holidays
 From The Joe Sciarrone Group...

It's December, the tree is up and decorated, the lights are on the house, and we are still busy selling houses! 

Most would think that it is an odd time of year to be shopping for a house, but the holidays are a great time of year to both
BUY and SELL.

Here are a few reasons why...




When homes are beautifully decorated, they appeal to buyers who tend to be more emotional during the holiday season, so they are more likely to pay your price!




People who look for a home during the Holidays
are more serious about buying.  Don't wait for the January rush of homes, list now and shine against your competition.




For the first time in many years, the cost of a mortgage is the same as or less than renting, allowing many first time buyers to get out of apartment living & make their first purchase!




Interest rates are incredibly low, making it a great time to purchase a new house, and there are tax incentives for
Homepath Program buyers through the end of the year!


If you are considering buying and selling, give us a call,
we are here to help!

Happy Holidays!
