According to Redfin data, homes listed in March and April not only sell the fastest, but they also sell for the most money.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If we had to narrow it down to the best possible month to list your home, April reigns supreme. As you can see from the above chart, on average a home listed in April will sell 14 days faster and for $2,750 more than if the same home were listed in November. If April doesn\u2019t work for your timeframe, March, and May are also excellent months to list your home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many factors that play into why spring is the best time to list your home for sale. The weather is nicer, giving buyers more incentive to begin touring homes. Flowers are beginning to bloom, enhancing your curb appeal. And homes are full of natural light, helping your spaces feel open, warm, and welcoming. April is also perfect timing for buyers who have children looking to move and settle in so they can enjoy summer with their family before the new school year begins.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Homes listed in the middle of the week sell for more money<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to listing your home in the spring, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/tips-sell-home-more-money\/\" data-wpel-link=\"exclude\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">homes listed on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday sells for $1,700 more<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> than one listed on the weekend, and it sells nearly two days faster. Although the market is very competitive right now, homes will receive many views regardless of when they are listed, but sellers can increase their potential sale value or decrease the days their home sits on the market by listing midweek. When homes are listed in the middle of the week it gives potential buyers time to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.redfin.android&amp;hl=en_US&amp;gl=US\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"external noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">view the listing online<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, speak to their agent, and schedule a tour for the weekend. Home sellers can then typically review offers on Monday or Tuesday the following week.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other factors to consider before selling your home\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b>The local housing market<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Because of the current inventory shortage due to COVID-19, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/real-estate-bidding-wars-february-2021\/\" data-wpel-link=\"exclude\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">bidding wars<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> between buyers are greater than ever before.

Buying a home is a big expenditure, and in our current market being pre-approved for a mortgage and making sure you have enough money for the downpayment on your next home is vital. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mortgage lenders<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> will ask for your financial statements and look at your credit history before making a decision for pre-approval. If they think you&#8217;re a good candidate for a loan, they&#8217;ll decide the maximum amount they&#8217;re willing to lend you. Keep up on the current market conditions to find out if the market value of your current home is more or less than the remaining balance on your mortgage before making the decision to sell.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Hiring a home inspector:<\/strong> Once you have decided the right time to list your home to sale, consider hiring a home inspector. Home inspections can be a deal killer, so beat the buyer to it and schedule a pre-listing home inspection. Tackle all of the repairs before putting your home on the market. When a home buyer knows that there has been a previous inspection and all repairs have been performed, they are more willing to pay top dollar, and your home will most likely sell more quickly and for more.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Methodology<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By adjusting Redfin data to separate out seasonal impact on housing, such as home sales typically increase in the spring and decrease in the fall, we were able to measure how the market behaves independently from the time of year.
