It’s your last chance to put in an offer in 2021- and it turns out buying a property in Leeds in December will save you a few pennies.
According to an ATTOM Data Solutions report, December is when buyers typically get the best prices on real estate. Whether this is because nobody wants to sign the papers over Christmas or the 4pm moonlight isn’t the best way to view your future home, buyers aren’t complaining.
Generally, there tend to be fewer buyers during the winter season, so if you’re looking to buy your next home, you’ll have far more choice now than you will in the summer months. As a result, house prices tend to be lower and you have more negotiating clout with the seller.
Of course, the all-cash offer is always popular, but with less competition, cash buyers truly can have their pick this month.
But regardless of your budget or buying powers, there are so many homes on the market in Leeds right now that we believe everyone should be able to find a home that suits their needs before interest picks back up in the new year.
