Did you know that April 13-19 is the best time to sell your home? A recent article on Fortune.com, citing data from the National Association of Realtors, stated that though there is variance by region, April 13-19 is the best week to sell your home nationwide. There is plenty of quantitative data to back that up, and anecdotally, we are definitely seeing an influx of buyers looking to make a purchase. We have more clients looking to make a move right now than we’ve had in quite some time, and we have been spending a SIGNIFICANT portion of our days showing homes to buyers, which we love. Typically, house-hunting surges around Memorial Day, but we’re seeing a burst in activity a bit earlier this year. What does that increased demand mean for would-be sellers? Potentially higher prices. According to Zillow.com, sellers can generally expect better gains when they list between March 15 and July 31. Historically, homes sold during that time went for 6.7% more than they would in January and sold 17% faster. Will those numbers hold true this year, with the increased demand? Looks like it. 

If you are ready to buy or curious about selling- Give us a call! We love using both national and local trends to our clients’ advantage. Whether that means getting you a higher price because we timed it right or helping you cut through the competition to get what you want, we’re here and ready. Spring has SPRUNG for real estate.
