It’s the middle of winter, and there’s snow on the ground in New England, but the housing market is starting to heat up. If you’re looking to buy or sell a home in this winter market, what can you do to get the best deal possible? Here are a few insights about our current market that should make it easier to buy or sell. 

First, there tend to be fewer homes on the market this time of year. However, this also means there’s less competition for both buyers and sellers. If you find a home you like, you probably won’t have to compete with 20 other buyers, so now might be the time to make a move if you’re looking for a smooth transaction.

“Not everyone has the luxury of getting to pick and choose when they sell.”

Statistically, the best times to sell your home are during the spring and summer markets. However, not everyone has the luxury of getting to pick and choose when they sell. Fortunately, there are plenty of advantages to selling in the winter. For example, your listing will stand out because there is less competition. If you put in the proper staging and prep work, your home can really pop, and you can still get a fantastic deal.
