10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 HAPPY NEW YEAR! Have you been thinking about selling for a while but are unsure as to when the perfect time of the year is to place your home on the market? A New Year brings some fresh, fantastic and logical reasons as to why it is the perfect time.

Let’s start with life’s most precious commodity, time. At the start of the New Year many people are still on holidays, this means that they have plenty more leisure time to visit real estate agencies and browse through potential homes that they are interested in buying.

It isn’t just about time for the potential buyer though, you may also have more time on your hands. Take the opportunity to spruce up your home a little, complete those DIY projects you have been putting off because of your lack in spare time. Some small renovations could add thousands of dollars of value to your home. (see –http://meltononthemove.com.au/2014/09/add-value-home-without-wasting-away-savings/)

Generally real estate during the Christmas and New Year period is quieter and this could dramatically work in your favour. There may be fewer new listings coming up in this time and if your property pops up, it could definitely stand out to the potential buyer.

During the Christmas break, people tend to be happier and if you respond with a similar attitude by being positive, helpful they are likely to respond to this. Think of the romantic appeal that buying a home at Christmas time/the start of a New Year creates. A couple or young family may look for this as a New Year’s resolution and think of the wonderful story this would create for family and friends.

Placing your home on the market could be the perfect way to kick start your New Year!
