Andrew Duncan, #1 RE/MAX Agent in Florida, is joined by Robert Johnson from The Duncan Duo Team, Mike Yates of Atlantic Bay Mortgage Group and Richard Vasquez of Artisan Insurance Group to talk about why buying or selling a home in the winter months is better than waiting for Spring.

Unlike other markets, the Tampa Real Estate market doesn't really have the seasonal fluctuation that other markets do. The slowest period The Duncan Duo team has experienced throughout the years is the week between Christmas and New Year. December is usually one of the busiest months they have for closings while January is the busiest listing month.

One of the advantages of having your home on the market during this time is less competition which can result to multiple offers situations that can drive the price up. It's also the best time for buyers to go look at homes because of the great weather. Another advantage in closing by the end of the year is the Homestead exemption.
