A Late Thanksgiving Helps Home Sellers This November


A Late Thanksgiving Helps Home Sellers This November
By Scott Rogers • November 7, 2019
If you are planning to list your house for sale in November, it may feel like you have an extra week of buyer activity this year -- since Thanksgiving won't be celebrated all the way until November 28th this year! This is the latest possible date (the 28th) on which Thanksgiving can occur -- as the holiday has been celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November ever since Congress passed a law stating as much way back in 1941. As a side note -- from 1863 until 1938 the holiday was celebrated on the last Thursday of November - and then back in 1939 and 1940 your Thanksgiving celebration might have taken place on one of two different weeks depending on your state of residence!?! Read more about the history of Thanksgiving scheduling here. Oh, and if you're getting ready to list your house for sale this November or December, let's get some photos ASAP to get it on the market and in front of buyers before Thanksgiving (there is still time) instead of afterwards.
