5 REASONS WHY WINTER IS THE BEST

TIME TO BUY A HOMEBy Tracey Rancifer

The winter months

are full of family,

food and good times.

Temperatures may

be freezing, and

snow could even be

on the ground. You

may not think about

buying a home at

this time, but I have

5 powerful reasons

why buying a home

during winter makes

perfect sense.

Homeowners who list their homes in winter usually need to move from their

property, say for job relocation, and are more willing to negotiate. Use this to

your advantage to get a favorable deal.

Motivated Sellers

Home prices are at an annual low in the winter months, which means buying

a home now can increase your purchasing power and can get you more

house for your money.

Bargain Prices

Fewer buyers mean less competition. Less competition means fewer chances

of there being multiple offers on a single property.

Little Competition

Seasonal Perspective

Is the heating system functioning properly? Were there drafts coming

through the windows or did you feel cold when touring the home?

Considering such important factors could impact your quality of living from

day to day and your wallet later.

Lower activity during winter months can mean more attention from your

real estate agent and lenders can be more accessible for questions and

assistance.
