Do Homes Sell in December?
Many home sellers ask the question, Do homes sell in December? Here’s one home sale that leads to a resounding YES!
A couple of days after the open house, Denise calls to ask if I would like to speak about home staging at a home sellers event that she’s holding at the Yorktown Public Library. The evening was a huge success…but it gets better!
Shortly after that, Denise asks me to speak at more of her events, and well, the rest is history. We have now presented together more than a dozen times, and at a Somers library event last fall, we meet home sellers Julia and Gabe.

After
Over the following two months, Julia and Gabe find time in their busy schedules to prepare their home for sale. Denise and I support them along the way, and AtWell Staged Home returns for a half-day in mid-December to add the final touches.
The home is listed 8 days before Christmas and receives a full-price offer the same day. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath, 2,100-square-foot raised ranch sells for the full asking price of $449,900 and answers the question, Do homes sell in December? They most certainly do!
Here’s what this happy home seller has to say:
“What my homeowners and I appreciate most about Sue is her creative vision and her focus on cost-effective modifications. She has the unique ability to utilize what is readily available in the home and transform my seller’s properties into, what I like to call, the “GEM on the market.” Thank you Sue for another quick and successful sale!”
