The Best Time to Sell Your Home (& the Home Selling Timeline)

The data has spoken, and if you’re planning to sell, the countdown is on!
 
According to the Association of Interior Realtors:
If you want to sell quickly – list February/March.
If you want to sell for max profit – shoot for March/April.
(And if you’re the over-achiever type, list on a Thursday – the best day of the week for a listing to go live.)
 
With that in mind, here’s a rundown of what you need to knock out between now and then to prep your home for market (with an estimate of how long each step takes).
 
– Schedule a seller consult with a trusted realtor: 1 week
– Make suggested repairs, declutter, and stage: 2-6 weeks.
– Meet with a realtor to set a listing price and schedule listing photos: 1-2 weeks
– List your home on the MLS: 1-2 days
– Wait for an offer: 64 days. (average days on market, November 2022
– Negotiate: 3-5 days
– Prepare for inspection and appraisal: 2-3 weeks
– Close on your home: 1 day
 
You can sell your home in as little as 8-10 weeks, depending on how quickly you receive an offer. Want help or have questions about selling? DM us today!
