Do you know the best day of the week to list your home?

Real Estate Broker/Owner with CENTURY 21 Wieder Realty

Sellers should list their home on a Friday for the best chance of selling it, according to Seattle-based brokerage Redfin.

Redfin analyzed data for 1.2 million listings in 16 markets nationwide over the past 21 months. The brokerage found that of all listed homes in those 16 markets, those listed on a Friday were 12 percent more likely to sell within 90 days, and homes listed on a Thursday or Friday sold, on average, for slightly closer to list price: 94.4 percent compared with 93.9 percent when homes are listed on a Sunday or Monday. Put another way, that's a $1,000 difference on a $200,000 home.

Homes listed on a Friday were also 18.8 percent more likely to be toured by Redfin customers. Homes listed on a Sunday or Monday were the least likely to be toured.

Wouldn't work in my area as there is a minimum 24 hour delay in listings being uploaded to public MLS.  Also, most professional realtors have their prime time weekends booked well in advance.

Hi Randy we always put ours in MLS on Thursday and do prices adjustments as well to hit the hot list coming out of Friday for all the Realtors in our board.
