Sometimes, it really pays to go against the crowd. It's common knowledge Spring is the season when most people put their homes on the market. Summer is the high season, and it’s when most homes sell. Regardless, there are a few powerful reasons why Fall might actually be a better time than either Spring or Summer to sell your house, including:
By the Fall, the bulk of spring listings are expiring. As a result, there is less competition on the market.
The listing stands out in the Fall with the *NEW* listing label.
Home buyers in the Fall are generally more serious. They have been looking at listings for months, and they are eager to conclude their search and move in comfortably before the holidays.
When you put those reasons together, it is easy to see why homes listed in the Fall sell more quickly and often command a higher price. In fact, Fall is the season with the highest percentage of sold listings, beating Summer by 1%.
