Are you thinking of Selling this Spring?
One of the most common questions we get from potential sellers is when is the best time of the year to sell their property and it is also one of the most complex questions to answer. There are actually “pluses and minuses” to consider when selling at any time of the year.
Often making this decision will usually come down to your own personal plans and circumstances.
When you look at it closely, there and “pro’s and con’s” to selling at any time of the year, but there is no absolutely right or wrong time.
Spring is the Prime Selling Season
For many people, Spring is viewed as the “Prime Selling Season” for real estate.
And why not?
Our landscaping and gardens tend to be looking at their best, pools and outdoor entertaining area look at their best, the weather is normally neither too hot nor too cold, and many families like to buy at a time that will allow them to move and settle during a comfortable time of year.
Whether it has something to do with the birds chirping while the flowers are blooming or extra cash from tax time, spring is the number one time to sell a house. The only drawback to selling in Spring can occur if large numbers of people decide to do the very same thing!
Quite often the law of supply and demand can become very evident during spring if a large number of homes come onto the market all at the same time.
If the set number of buyers suddenly have a vast number of more options to choose from, this can lead to a drop in the number of buyers per property, and therefore diminished competition.
Because a property’s highest period of activity during the sales process is in the first few weeks it is absolutely essential to get the asking price right from the very start. With so many new properties coming on to the market and over priced property quickly becomes stale and is replaced by fresh listings. Re-assessing the list price can be too late and the missed opportunities can be expensive.
The simple fact is that the best time to sell your property is when it suits YOU best. For many that perfect time of the year is Spring. The secret to ensure you obtain the best selling opportunity in Spring is to get in early before the typical Spring stampede gains momentum and because of the increased competition ensure your price is right from day one.
