There’s no doubt about it – the holiday season can be a challenging time to sell a home. It’s an incredibly busy time of the year and home sales slow down while people find themselves dealing with the hustle and bustle of the holidays. That being said, there are some positive aspects about selling a house over the holiday season as well.

Next, the holidays do present a unique opportunity to inject some warmth and spirit into your home. Without abandoning the basics of effective Staging, you can bring some holiday-themed design elements into your home and create a very cozy and welcoming environment. Doing so will have a positive impact on showings.
