When is the BEST time to put your house on the Market?
When it is ready for prospective Buyer to see it.
Many homeowners think that putting their house on the market in the early Sp
ring is a good time to list their house. Spring time is a great time to put your house on the market. - But it has to be ready for buyers to see it. It needs to be Photo Ready.
You only have ONE shot at a 1st impression. Buyers are looking online to find a home. They love to look at pictures and Virtual Tours. They will make a decision whether they want to view your home based on the pictures they see. If your house shows poorly online, you will loose the opportunity to have them consider your house. They will bypass it.
You will not get a second chance. If you put your house on the market too soon and then make changes and resubmit your pictures, chances are the people who already saw it will not look at it again because they already ruled 
it out.
