Happy Holidays from
Gulfcoast Holidays Homes!

Have you been thinking of putting your home on the market, but want to wait until after the busy holiday season?  Here are a few reasons to act now, and not later.  Let us help you sell your home fast!

  • Buyers are out there now, as in right now! They are serious about buying a home.  There are many guests here from other countries and states on holiday (we certainly know, we specialize in vacation rentals).  Often times, out-of-towners come here to vacation, as well as look into buying their very own permanent or seasonal home. They’re here, they’re qualified, and they’re looking.
  • There are a lot of companies that do their employee-hiring throughout the holiday season. Families and individuals need to move from out-of-state quickly to begin their new careers.  These new hires need a home, and they need it as soon as possible!  Your home could be the perfect fit.
  • So deck the halls and hang your stockings on the mantle!  You’ve probably heard of real estate agents putting chocolate chip cookies in the oven for open houses if your home is cozy and smells of delicious holiday treats it makes Buyers feel more comfortable and more “at home” meaning they are more likely to make your home their home.  So you’re not indulging when you bake tasty treats. Santa won’t forget it!
  • Your home and your neighborhood are visually more appealing to Buyers during the holidays. Festive decorations can create an emotional response, and cause Buyers to buy their dream home sooner than later.
  • There can be less competition at this time of the year. There is a surplus of qualified Buyers and not enough homes. It’s a perfect time to put your house on the market, and sell it fast to eager Buyers!  Often times homes sell not only quicker but for a higher price during the holiday season due to less inventory.  So get ahead of the competition now!
  • End-of-year tax breaks are a huge incentive for prospective Buyers. If Buyers can close before December 31 they can deduct property taxes, mortgage interest, and other costs.  And who doesn’t like to save money, especially during the holidays!Family at the Christmas Table
