While most people don't think of the holidays as a good time for house-hunting, that may be just the reason to do it. Less competition with other buyers and more desperate sellers can mean a great deal on a new Jersey Shore beach home.

Sellers tend to avoid the end of the year due to the short days, wintry weather and conventional wisdom that says buyers are otherwise occupied. But those who do choose to sell at year-end are often under pressure and highly motivated to make a deal.

A seller who's looking to move a piece of real estate during the holidays is generally an owner who needs to sell. And that's why a year-end purchase may be a smart time to buy; determined house-hunters can take advantage of sellers' urgency.

Shopping off-season may give you a negotiating edge and the Jersey Shore Realty Group is here to help you find the perfect home.
