Buy Before the Holidays? Here’s Why It’s Smart

November 11, 2025

The holiday season might not scream “house hunting,” but it can actually be a sweet spot for buyers. With fewer shoppers in the market, you’ll face less competition and may even find motivated sellers eager to close before year-end.

You’ll also get to see homes at their coziest—how they handle winter weather, light, and warmth. That’s real insight into what living there feels like day to day.

If you’re ready to start the new year in a new home, November is the perfect time to make your move.

Radical responsibility is a tough one, but wow does it change everything. When I take full ownership of even the smallest part I play in a situation, it pulls me out of blame and frustration and puts me back in a place of growth and clarity.
If you’re wanting to feel lighter and more empowered, try it. Even just once. It’s amazing what shifts when we decide to own our part and move forward.
