ATTOM Data Solutions said that homebuyers willing to close on a home the day after Christmas see the biggest discounts below full market value, with an average discount of 0.3% over the expected sales price.
And beyond that, the next best days to buy are New Year’s Eve (December 31) and December 4, both of which offer discounts of 0.1%.
And that data matches up with Realtor.com’s report, which states that views on the company’s home search site have been peaking in the first two months of the year, rather than later in the year.
For all the talk about spring homebuying season being the prime time for the real estate market, it turns out that homebuying season starts when it's much colder outside.
