With Thanksgiving tomorrow, the festive holiday season will soon be in full swing! If you currently live in Harbor Country or are visiting friends and family in the area; you’ll enjoy the charming atmosphere that Harbor Country has to offer this time of year. Harbor Country homes are adorned with twinkling lights and local shops offer those special holiday finds that enhance the spirit of the season.
If you’ve been on the hunt for a Harbor Country home, you may be tempted to take a break during the holiday season. While finding your dream home may not be on the top of your list with all of the parties and gatherings with loved ones, there are a few compelling reasons to continue on with your search and to buy a home this holiday season. Take a look!
1. Lower Prices- With the lack of people searching during the holidays for a home in Harbor Country; prices soften a bit. You can view our website, ShorelineAdvice.com, to see a list of our current homes for sale in Harbor Country! You’ll notice these homes are priced to sell and are a great deal for buyers.
2. Less Competition- Many buyers don’t think to take advantage of house hunting during the holidays, so you’re sure to avoid any bidding wars that would occur at a peak point on the Harbor Country Real Estate market. This will mean a less stressful home buying experience for you!
3. Motivated Sellers- Sellers dread not being able to sell their homes before the holidays get under way. They’re very aware that most are not in the market to buy a home until Spring rolls around, which means; they’re motivated. They know showings of their home will greatly decrease, so any activity on their home is good news. Oftentimes they’re willing to come down on the price or be flexible with closing dates, and other extras.
4. Favorable Mortgage Terms- Mortgage lenders may be willing to lower interest rates or let go of some of their fees in order to gain your business. With fewer people shopping for homes; they will be experiencing a slower time in their business as well. Be sure to shop around to get the best possible deal. Your Harbor Country Real Estate agent will help point you in the right direction.
5. Tax Deduction- Closing before the end of the year can mean you are eligible to deduct the interest component of your first monthly mortgage payment from your taxable income for this year. You may also be able to deduct any money you pay for points to reduce your interest rate. Of course you’ll want to consult with a Harbor Country tax advisor to talk over the full details.
