Experience Living in Batavia
This listing appointment I’m about to go on came from a referral from an agent down in the Atlanta area and he asked the question, Hey, are people still buying or selling in December? Do people still buy or sell homes in December? I’m like, yeah. And that’s the case. You can look around. You see the Christmas decorations on the houses. We’re a few weeks out from Christmas right now. Yes, people do buy and sell homes in December in the Cincinnati area. Overall, if you look at the amount of units that are sold throughout the year, generally December, January, February, they’re gonna be your lowest months. They’re gonna be down about 30%, in terms of the average amount of units sold throughout the entire year. But if you need to buy a house, if you need to sell a house in the winter, you can still do that.
