Because the whiners all stay home. Only those serious buyers are out there which means more inventory, fewer buyers and better prices. It is true that many sellers pull their homes from the market over the holidays (which is a bad idea) but the sellers that don’t are generally more motivated to sell!
Imagine a market where you could sift all the inventory through a filter that removed the half hearted sellers that are testing the market, but don’t need to sell. The filter could take out the buyers that are willing to pay too much and the homes that are perfect. Imagine a market where there is a higher percentage of motivated sellers and fewer buyers!
THAT is the WINTER MARKET and it is here for the taking! Investors and First time Home Buyers should all jump in while the gettin’s good and interest rates are the lowest in 40 years!
