Be Ready to Act Quickly: While there are fewer buyers during the holiday season, the ones who are shopping are often ready to make decisions. Get pre-approved for a mortgage and have your finances in order so that you can move quickly if you find your dream home.
Leverage Holiday Spirit for Negotiation: The end of the year often creates a sense of urgency, which can work in your favor during negotiations. Sellers may be more flexible, especially if they are eager to wrap up their home sale before the new year.
Watch for Year-End Deals: Sometimes builders and sellers will offer special incentives or discounts as the year comes to a close. This could be a great time to capitalize on any year-end promotions.
