When selling your home during the holiday season, from Halloween through New Year’s Day, keep your home festive while maintaining an elegant display. Do your holiday decorating in a way that helps potential buyers be able to picture themselves celebrating the holidays in this house. Don’t overdo the holiday decorations, use white lights rather than multiple colored lights, for example. Keep front entry decorations to an elegant wreath on the front door.
