Selling During the Holidays

[Ben Smith]

Hello BPer's,

I'm getting ready to put my first house on the market. This was not a rehab but still my first real estate investment as I purchased it in early 2011 when the CO market was at just about rock bottom. Now, it is time to sell as prices have been skyrocketing here lately. 

My question is, do you think that it could be worth the wait until the early spring to list it, or to just list it right in the middle of the holidays or shortly thereafter? 

I am planning on moving to the Tampa area of FL to try my hand at flipping full time so an extra $10-$15k would be great if I could get it by waiting. There is no REAL hurry other than wanting to start a new career in REI and get out of what I'm currently doing (which is a great job).

Any thoughts are appreciated,

Ben
