How do holidays affect showings?

Not necessarily. There are usually fewer buyers, but there is also less competition from other listings, and buyers who are shopping often have a deadline. A well-priced, well-presented home can sell in any season.

It depends on your circumstances. Spring generally brings more buyers, but waiting adds carrying costs and uncertainty. If you have a move date or need to sell, listing now can make sense, and if not, waiting is reasonable.

Value is driven by condition, location, and comparable sales, not the calendar. Pricing carries more weight with fewer buyers, since an overpriced home can sit unnoticed.

Keep it warm and well lit, clear the entry and walkways, keep seasonal decor neutral and modest, and have the heating system and roof checked. Book photos while there is good daylight.
