Into the Weekend with Matt - December 15, 2023

Seasons Greetings! I hope that this finds you and your family enjoying all the good things in life. This time of year can be busy with parties, events and wrapping up the year, more generally. I hope in the midst of all that busyness, you're able to enjoy some quality time with family and friends. As this is my last note for the year, I want to wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I hope that your home is full of much love and many wonderful memories this holiday season. We'll see you in 2024! -Matt

Matt's Market Minute Buyers that are home shopping during the holidays and into January tend to be pretty motivated. I wouldn't rule out selling sooner rather than later if a new home is on your agenda for 2024.
