According to Exactly Real Estate, the winter home selling market is going to be red hot

By Laura Briedis

In this red-hot real estate market, winter is the new spring.

“It used to be that homeowners would wait to list their homes until the spring or summer, but currently homes are still selling for record high prices,” says Kevin Wasie, owner of Exactly real estate company. “Though the market has cooled off a little bit, buyer behavior has not changed as buyers are still willing to pay asking price and interest rates are still low, making this an ideal time to sell your home.”

“Buyers who were looking for a house during the summer and didn’t find one or got outbid are still out there looking for properties,” he says. “Plus, people are always moving any time of the year, even on Thanksgiving and Christmas Day.”

Although listing your home during the holidays may seem more stressful, it also can show off your home in the best light. All those twinkling lights, fireplace mantel decorations and the smell of fresh pine make for a warm and cozy atmosphere.

“If you are willing to open up your house during the holidays for showings, it can be a good time to market your home. It will stand out more because there are fewer homes on the market,” notes Kevin.

An innovative real estate company, Exactly helps eliminate the stress selling a home can cause with a process that is simple, transparent and effective.

The real estate agents handle everything from pricing analysis and marketing of the home to negotiating the final deal and delivering the keys to the buyer for a $4,800 package fee—instead of a percentage of the sale.

“Flat-fee pricing is a more fair process,” comments Kevin. “Selling a home that is worth $500,000 takes the same amount of work as selling a $200,000 home, so I don’t think it is fair to charge so much more commission. Every home that we sell goes through the same process from ‘for sale’ to ‘sold.’”
