They say there’s no place like home for the holidays, and for many potential Utah homebuyers, that means your home. The holiday season isn’t usually considered the optimal time to buy and sell residential real estate, but with Utah’s market still on fire – even when (baby) it’s cold outside – there’s no reason Santa can’t bring you the perfect buyer this winter.
