No, not really.
There is not an area wide sale on houses on the day after Thanksgiving.
It's a joke.
I mean... other than the fact that yes, most houses for sale today will probably still be for sale on the day after Thanksgiving. ;-)
But...
Any home seller who has had their home on the market for the past few months without it going contract...
- Probably spent time on Thanksgiving reflecting on how thankful they would be if a buyer would show up for their house.
- Would likely be delighted to receive an offer from you on the day after Thanksgiving.
- Is certainly eyeing the calendar and realizing there are only four weeks until Christmas, which are likely be to slower weeks for house showings.
- Might be willing to negotiate a bit (or more) on price since this is usually a slower time of year for houses going under contract.
Anyhow - if you're ready to buy a home, this Friday might be a great time to make an offer on a house that has been on the market for a bit and has not yet sold!
Happy Thanksgiving, friends! :-)
