Real Estate and the Weather

So as many people know I am fascinated with the weather and how it affects peoples buying decisions. For instance the mad rush to buy all of the bread, milk, and gas in town ,which are for some reason a hot commodity, every time a weather forecaster simply utters the word snow, or "It could get interesting" in the long range forecast.



This is  theory I have been working on for a long time. (Weather Conspiracy 2008, Weather Conspiracy 2010) So how does this alter people's decisions to buy other things, like Lexington KY Real Estate? So before I spill out my theory I want to ask you. Does the weather affect your buying decisions (not bread, milk, and gas) for things like a new home, cars etc? Then we will look at the real numbers and what that waiting may actually be doing to you net worth and such later.

3 Reasons Why Buying or Selling a Home Over the Holidays Can Be a Good Idea

This time of year it is inevitable to hear, "I am just going to wait..." to buy or sell a home until the market picks back up in the Spring. It does make some sense to think that, however I am going to show you three reasons I thin its good for either.

3 Reason to Sell over the holidays:
1. Anyone out looking in the cold, snow, and taking time from family and shopping this time of year, must be serious!
2. Less competition, many sellers will not read this article and will take their home off market and come back with the herd in the spring with the other sellers who decided to wait.
3. The buyers will feel good in your home with a little foresight. The home is festive and subconsciously the buyers will feel more at home with all the Holiday decorations, smells, warmth. Christmas trees, music, decorations, eggnog, a fire....use your imagination and go all out. Think of these two movies as guides:  Think This    -  What its probably like in Real Life

3 Reasons to Buy of the Holidays:
1. Only serious sellers will have their home on the market this time of year, if it has been on the market since this summer, then maybe they realize they made the mistake and overpriced it then and are ready to sell it now. Rates and prices will go up you know....
2. Sellers are people too and are often more understanding of needs this time of year.  Flexible closing terms, concessions, lower price who knows what is possible.
3. You get the enjoy the festiveness of the home and see it in its full real life glory, not a lot of staged fakery going on this time of year. You can see the house for how it is really utilized bu the current family to gauge how it will be when you own it.

The bottom line is that there never really is a bad time to buy or sell a home. It comes down to the desire or need to buy or sell by both parties. My advice is now is a great time to buy, so fire up the family truckster or get the home decorated and call your Realtor and get to it.
