I draw the line at showing on Christmas Day...no sale is worth my working on Christmas Day or Easter. Some things are just sacred to me.

No I haven't. I haven't shown a house on Christmas Day, and for that I'm very thankful.

Yup, I've written contracts that closed on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Thanksgiving, New years day and Labor Day. I was younger and hungry at the time... very early in my career. Today I would not even answer the phone on Christmas.

I have shown vacant properties on Christmas Day but never one that's occupied. Not everyone celebrates Christmas, but being sensitive to those that do is important.

I've had a closing on Dec 24th before. The city was oddly quiet... I think we were the only ones doing business that day.... maybe it was the weather... (rainy & dark).
Was happy to close but would've rather been home in my jammies..twinkling my toes by the fireplace.
Whenever I complete a contract & the parties involved have no preference to the exact closing date...I check the calendar to see what's going on first before selecting the date.

Debbie,
Ron got a building into escrow Christmas eve, which had to close on 12/31. It was a tax thing. No showings on Christmas day. A

I have never shown or sold ON christmas day. That said, I have had a client who begged us to close on Christmas day, AND I have Broker friends who belong to large non-Christian communiteis who think nothing of showing vacant homes on Christmas day.

No, but my team members have sold properties on all of the holidays. For many, Christmas is another day of business opportunities.

I will have my phone on but will not be out showing houses. Offices are closed and sellers will be with families. I will gladly show on the 26th as early as we can make it happen.

No. I do not show homes on Christmas day either . I am sure home sellers like to be able to celebrate the day. Our office is closed on that day.

I haven't shown on Christmas Day and wouldn't either. But if they can be reasonable I will schedule it for the next day and they probably didn't miss a thing. Thanks for the sharing your viewpoints.

I personally did not:( But I'd love to!
I read few blog posts of lucky agents about closing on or right before a Christmas day. It happens:)

Here in Hawaii, there are a lot of people Debbie Reynolds with an ethnic background that basically ignores EVERY holiday celebrated in America. Haven't SOLD a home, but have received offers on Christmas Eve, Day and New Years eve and day. I clicked LIKE on this post.

Debbie Reynolds Wow, that's a great question. I can honestly say I have not but only because I refuse to work on Christmas Day. That's one of the only days I am "just not available" to anyone but my family. Have you?

Debbie Reynolds I will be surprised if someone has ever done it. Not gone through all the comments but there are two concerns, even if buyer is willing to see the home, the sellers should be willing t show it.

Very interesting responses. In my town business shuts down and it is even hard to find a restaurant open. I think it is okay to really have a day off though I will be working hard having family in for dinner.
