Are you thinking about selling<\/a> your house right now, but you\u2019re not sure you\u2019ll have the time to do so as the holidays draw near? If so, consider this: even as the holiday season approaches, there are plenty of buyers out there, and they really<\/em> want your house<\/a>. Here\u2019s why selling this winter is a win for you.<\/span><\/p>\n Today\u2019s buyers are still dealing with a limited number of homes for sale. Thanks to continued low inventory<\/a>, those buyers are competing with one another for their dream home. And when that happens, if your house is one of the few on the market, it will rise to the top of the pool \u2013 and it will be worth it.<\/p>\n According to the latest data from the National Association of Realtors<\/em><\/a> (NAR), the average seller received 3.7 offers on their house in September. For a view into what\u2019s happening at the state level, take a look at the map below: Any offer you receive will likely be from a highly motivated buyer who\u2019s doing everything they can to beat the competition<\/a>. The stakes for buyers are high. They\u2019ve been looking for a house and they want to lock in their dream home before prices<\/a> and mortgage rates<\/a> rise further next year. Chances are, they\u2019ll get creative with the terms of their offer, which could include waiving contingencies and offering over the asking price \u2013 both of which are great news for you<\/a>.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re on the fence about when to sell, remember your house is a hot commodity this season. As other sellers take a break for the holidays with plans to re-list their homes in the new year, you can put your house in front of motivated buyers by making your move today. That means your house will be the center of attention<\/a>, and likely the center of a bidding war too.<\/p>\n Selling now gives you even more opportunity to win big as buyers compete for your house in today\u2019s market.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Are you thinking about selling your house right now, but you\u2019re not sure you\u2019ll have the time to do so as the holidays draw near?

<\/a>Nationwide, the average seller today is getting nearly four offers. That number is significant because it means you\u2019ll likely have multiple offers to pick from if you sell your house this season. To put things into perspective, no matter where your state falls, remember that you really only need one good offer to close the deal<\/strong>.<\/p>\nBottom Line<\/strong><\/h3>\n
