Is it the Time of the Season for Selling a House?

If you’re a seller, this is the optimal time! This begins in spring and lasts through summer, it the best way to go, according to experts. Spring is definitely the busiest time for both home-selling and home-buying season in the majority of areas.

Spring and summer, what you will get!

1.  A Bigger sale price

Prices are highest during this time because, the most homes are listed. We also see more buyers in spring and summer, I mean who wants to trek around looking for homes in the snow and sleet?!

2.  Longer Days and Better Looking Homes!

We can’t deny that spring is when properties look their best. With the flowers are in bloom, grass green and growing, buyers eyes are opening. With the daylight savings time change this also gives buyers an opportunity to see more houses.

3.  Bidding Wars

Bidding wars can be a major headache for buyers but they usually work in the sellers favor. Bidding wars mean more money in your pocket!

What else?

With the internet market on fire listings can become old news fast. When selling your home, the biggest competition is a surge in new homes for sale. If you have your home ready to list by April, however, you can most likely beat this surge.

The supply of homes for sale is not even comparing to the demand right now. So you know what that means, competition has been fierce. Unfortunately not all homes sell quickly, especially if they’re not priced right and if the timing isn’t right, this is why you need the right real estate professional to guide you!

According to Huffington Post, “Just like there’s a magic day to buy a plane ticket, there’s a specific month when you should try to sell your house.” Experts say May is the month to beat, with us approaching April this is the time to get your house ready to put on the market!
