Price Competitively
• Work with your agent to set a fair price that aligns with the current market. Pricing correctly is critical for attracting serious buyers.
Offer Incentives
• Consider offering perks like covering closing costs, a home warranty, or leaving behind high-quality appliances to sweeten the deal.
Market the Home’s Energy Efficiency
• Highlight features like energy-efficient windows, insulation, or a smart thermostat. Buyers will appreciate savings during winter months.
Leverage the Low Inventory
• Winter markets often have less competition. Use this to your advantage by making your home stand out with great presentation and strategic pricing.
Work with the Right Agent
• Partner with an agent who understands the dynamics of selling during the winter and New Year season. They can guide you on trends and strategies.

Kelly Raulston
“Reliable and Ready” REALTOR® since 2016. I was born in Monroeville, Pennsylvania, but was raised in Texas since 1997. When I found out we were moving to Plano, Texas, I remember looking forward to riding a horse to school and a brand-new pair of cowboy boots! Growing up in Plano prepared me to be competitive, quick, and to have a strong work ethic.
I graduated from Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches, Texas. Axe’em Jacks! That is where my love for East Texas began. The nature, warm smiles, football games, and community values can't be beat! I graduated summa cum laude with a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. I was a middle school math teacher in Tyler, Texas. I met my husband, Travis, in Sunday school, and we have been married since September 2016.
I love being a REALTOR® in East Texas! Relationships are genuine, the area is beautiful, and the market is rockin’! I am an involved REALTOR® to better the community. Some of the organizations I am involved with are: The Professional Development Committee, Texas Real Estate Political Action Committee, and Tyler Educational Networking Group. Some awards I have won were “The Hustle Award” in 2016, and “Rookie of the Year” in 2017.
When I am not working with my clients, I like to spend quality time with my friends and family doing the following: running, target practice, read and participate in book club, and playing with my dachshund Greta.
