Christmas is a good time to buy a home

This Christmas might be the best time to buy a home for a number of reasons. It’s a time when not too many buyers are in the market, which means that the demand is low. Owners of properties, homes and condos who have listed their homes for sale are generally more motivated towards the end of the year. This makes them amenable to price negotiations and an early closure. Statistically, homes are at an all-time low during the Christmas season.
Perhaps the over-riding consideration is that the first-time homebuyer’s credit is in force till May 1, 2010. There is no guarantee it will be available next Christmas. However homebuyers must remember this credit applies only to homes used as a taxpayer's principal residence.
