If you really need to sell your home, you don’t have to wait until after the holidays. While there are fewer homebuyers, those actively searching are often committed to making a swift move due to reasons such as lease endings, job relocations, or military transfers.

You can make your home stand out in several ways:

Price it right. A lower price will excite buyers, but only accept a fair offer.

Clean and declutter. For a few hundred dollars, a cleaning crew will make your home look spotless. Pack away anything you don’t need in moving boxes and store them in a seldom-used room.

Keep holiday decor simple. String lights and evergreen branches. Skip the big tree and place a small one on a tabletop instead. Bake cookies and serve cinnamon cider for showings.

Prioritize the exterior. Make sure leaves are picked up, snow is shoveled, and walkways are safely de-iced.

Let someone else host dinners and parties. You can still enjoy holiday festivities without doing all the cooking and planning yourself. Friends and relatives will understand.
