Planning to Sell in 2025? Here’s the Best Week to List Your Home
If you’ve been considering putting your house on the market, you might be wondering about the
best time to do so. Historically, the week of April 13-19 has been a standout period for sellers,
according to a Realtor.com analysis of market trends over the past years. But if you’ve just
missed this window, don’t fret! The spring season is still in full swing and offers numerous
opportunities to successfully list and sell your home.
Why is mid-April typically ideal for home sellers?
● Higher Sale Prices: Homes listed during this week have historically sold for
approximately 6.7% more than those listed at the start of the year. This trend
underscores the potential for higher returns on your investment during this peak listing
period.
● Enhanced Visibility: Listings can receive up to 17.7% more views during this week
compared to an average week. More eyes on your property means a higher chance of
finding the right buyer quickly.
● Quicker Transactions: Properties tend to sell about 9 days faster than usual. This can
be a significant advantage if you’re looking to make a swift and efficient sale.
Even if the ideal week has just passed, the remaining spring months continue to offer great
potential for those looking to sell. Here’s how you can still capitalize on the bustling spring
market:
How to make the most of the spring selling season:
1. Preparation is key: Ensure your home is looking its best. Consider minor renovations or
touch-ups that could enhance appeal and add value.
2. Timing your sale: While mid-April is optimal, demand remains strong throughout spring.
Monitor local market trends with your Realtor to choose the best possible listing date.
3. Marketing your home effectively: Utilize high-quality photos, virtual tours, and staging
techniques to make your listing stand out. Ensure your home’s online presence is strong
with detailed descriptions and appealing visuals.
