Rhinebeck Bank | Fall Home-Buying Tips Pro tip from Rhinebeck Bank: Just as purchasing a home is an extensive process, selling one can be as well. Most sellers do not want to enter the holiday season with interruptions and the selling process on their mind. It is not uncommon for homeowners whose houses have not sold by the fall to wait until the following spring. With this being said, sellers are worn out and may be more willing to negotiate and expedite the closing and move-in process. Contact Rhinebeck Bank About a Mortgage >
