Customers ask us all the time, “What’s the best time of year to put a house on the market?”  There is no easy answer to this question, but here’s what we know.  First, statistically, a listing going active in the early spring tends to get closer to list price in a shorter period of time.  With that being said, we sell houses 12 months a year.  There are more listings available in the spring, but there tends to be more buyers too.  As we close out a year, we tend to “run out” of “fresh” inventory, and as a result, listings tend to languish longer because they are not fresh.

So the answer to the question is simple, pick up the phone, give us a call, and let’s discuss YOUR goals.  Your property is unique to you and the market, don’t let generalities guide your decisions, let’s look for answers that make sense for you!
