Why January is One of the Best Months To Buy a Home
As much as us Winnipegers think of ourselves as hearty and tough to our extreme cold temperatures, many of us (and I might even argue most of us) don’t want to venture outside if we can avoid it. Many of us tend to put things off until it warms up. March or April is just around the corner right. Soon this deep winter freeze will be behind us and life can get back to normal.
I see and hear this all the time when it comes to looking for homes. Many Winnipeg home buyers want to put off house shopping until temperatures become a little bit milder. That is perfectly understandable. Trudging through snow banks and viewing the outside of a home in -25 degree weather seems like such nuisance when balmier tempts are not that far off.
Well guess what? You and a huge majority of Winnipeg homes buyers feel the exact same way. Everyone wants to start the house hunting process in March or April. That’s right, your competition; the ones you will be competing with to get your dream house will be out in huge numbers this spring. Right now they are hibernating.
My advice; don’t wait to start looking. The right home for you may be on the market as we speak. Buying now could save you thousands of dollars by avoiding those all too common spring bidding wars.
Get a leg up on those wimpy Winnipeggers waiting for the spring and give me a call. Lets put on our long johns and brave the cold. I will be happy to show you homes in these frigid temperatures.
Happy house hunting!!
