What do you do when your home is on the market during the holidays? You will get all kinds of opinions on this subject all the way from take your home off of the market to keep it on the market; just don’t give too much information to anyone about your beliefs. Let them know you celebrate but don’t advertise any certain religious tone. (Santa and reindeer are good).
You have to laugh at all of the advice which comes from all sides. The bottom line is if your home is on the market, keep it on the market. Taking it off the market creates confusion and could give you a weaker position. Some may think you aren’t sure about your price or ability to sell in the winter months. If you wish to decorate then by all means decorate your home. Some advisors place way too much thinking into what buyers are considering when they come through your home. Keep your decoration to a modest look. In other words don’t choose to go entering any decoration contests. Place your tree in the usual place that you do each year. When buyers are touring your home they are visualizing their own tree and decorations. Keep all of the wires hidden and take away the chance of tripping hazards. Yes there is all kinds of advise when It comes to selling during the holiday season, just remember to keep it simple and be ready to take the decorations down if your home should sell. Above all have a happy holiday season!
