In November and December. You should talk to agents differently by conveying certainty that you really want to get a deal done agreed by Christmas, showing that you are ready to go, ready to buy with proof of funds decision principles. Show that you've got the skills, you understand the sales process, the convincing process, the mortgage process. You justify your offers with comparables and things like that show and that you know what you are doing and show that you've got your team ready as well. So share your solicitor mortgage broker details together with your offer. Most people think that the offer is about the number, but really it isn't. It's about making the agent and the vendor trust that you will complete the sale by a certain date and in that case by Christmas, which is really powerful. So it's the best time of the year for you to be going out doing deals because your competition has switched off. The vendors with problem properties will want to get rid even more that you want to do a deal. So go out there, solve problems, do more deals.
