Is Spring always the best time to sell your Schaumburg Home?

Is Spring always the best time to sell your Schaumburg home?

There are always many variables that make up a successful Schaumburg closing.  People are often told or have heard in the past that the spring market is always the best time toschaumburg homes,schaumburg townhomes,lyn sims, sell.  

But is it really?

Let's look at an important chart that gives you when buyers have decided to jump in the market to purchase a home.  Is it really when you think?

Many important factors can play out here including interest rate increases, time of year, snow fall, school starting and other personal variables.  Since we have been blessed with steady and low interest rates, that's not one of the factors.  We do usually see sales activity increase when a rate increase is anticipated.

So if you were a seller that owned a Schaumburg townhome, condo or quad, the most active time to sell your house would have been in September and October. The supposed spring marketing time really doesn't play out for those owners.

Now for Schaumburg homeowners the most active time in the market was for May closings. So for those owning a single family home, it would be possibly better for selling in the earlier part of the year.  But then again, October was not exactly slow either.

Not exactly what you expected was it?

Lyn your chart kind of reminded me of the two peak cycles most have and in your case Fall actually slightly better. Great graphing on your part!!

Hi Lyn, I like your chart. Bottom line is the sellers need to call you to see what your projections are for selling. Have a prosperous 2013.

Only one of the states I do mortgages has year round warm weather that being Florida. The winter months mortgage volume is double for us than the other month, that is not the case for us in CT, RI, MA, VT, NY, ME and NY.

Great post!
