While some home buyers were unable to purchase a property this summer due to fierce competition and a short supply, many experts say autumn is actually the best time to shop. With fewer people in the market to buy a home – and those who listed properties before still anxious to sell – this season creates a greater probability for a deal to happen.
The biggest thing that can help facilitate real estate sales at this time of year is that sellers are usually very serious about selling and want to close on the sale before the start of the holiday season or end of the year.
Other Benefits of Buying in the Fall Season
In addition to the fact that actually buying a home often becomes easier – even now when the market is still busy in comparison with historical norms – there are other serious benefits that might be available. For instance, mortgage companies are more likely to turn around the approval process quickly because they aren’t as inundated with applications at this time of year. The same may also be true of working with moving companies and other businesses that deal with real estate sales and related issues.
What to Look Out For
It’s important for home buyers to work with their agents and determine what course of action makes sense when it comes to buying homes that have been on the market for a while. Homes are being listed on the market for the first time all year long, so there may be some intriguing newer listings.
Motivated sellers and motivated buyers often make a great team when it comes to getting a home sale completed as quickly and easily as possible. However, it’s important – especially for those who have never made a purchase before – to work closely with their agents to determine how much house they can afford and what’s a good price for the properties they may be considering.
Your real estate agent will bring knowledge and experience in dealing with the local real estate market and let you know exactly what does or does not constitute a good deal, and how to more quickly get through a sale so you can begin putting down roots.

With fall weather officially here, many homeowners start thinking about the start of the holiday season that begins with Halloween and then runs through the first week of January. Traditional holiday decorating can be fun, but for many homeowners, perhaps the most exciting decor is Halloween because it lets them get a little adventurous with both the interior and exterior of their homes.
When it comes to scaring up some good ideas to creep out the neighbors, experts recommend investing time and energy in making a front yard look as spooky as possible. With that in mind, there are plenty of easy do-it-yourself ideas you can knock out in a weekend just in time for those trick or treaters. Here are just a few:
Webs Everywhere
Some of the easiest decorations are the ever-popular fake spider webs. They can be easy to find at just about any local craft store. You can also make them out of yarn and can be as large as you like. See instructions here from HGTV.
Lighting Option to Bewitch Visitors
Particularly crafty owners can also make lighting fixtures and hang them on their porch or from posts in their yards to really cast a spell on visitors, according to Polka Dot Chair. Witch hats (which can be purchased from any costume shop) are paired with fishing line, a few pins, and LED lights to create a spooky atmosphere.
Straw-Stuffed Scarecrow
Another great way to have a simple DIY project that probably won’t cost much at all is to take an old button-up shirt and pair of pants nobody wears any more, and fill it with straw. Then you can stand it against a tree, sit it on a porch or otherwise incorporate it into a scary scene. You can use a pumpkin, a paint bucket, or something else as a head – or to recall Ichabod Crane’s old foe – simply go headless to put an extra-disquieting exclamation on your front yard. See instructions here and here.
Traditional Decorations with a Twist
And of course, what front yard Halloween decorations would be complete without that tried-and-true Jack-o-Lantern? You don’t have to rely on triangular eyes and a crooked smile any more, because carving enthusiasts post printable patterns for even scarier designs. And instead of putting a candle in that pumpkin, LED lights that are designed to flicker like candles might be a smart long-term investment.
Here Lies Halloween
Finally, many families can have a bit of macabre comic fun by cutting up cardboard gravestones and incorporate a few jokes about who could be interred there. Whether it’s famous movie monsters, “punny” seasonal names or simply family in-jokes, that kind of decorating effort can really give a yard a chilling addition. See ideas here, here and here.
There are also plenty of other ideas out there you can find online, or make up your own. The trick at this time of year is to be as creative as possible so visitors have a spooktacular time, whether they’re stopping in for a chat or just there to pick up a treat on All Hallow’s Eve.
