If you have asked yourself that question lately we have good news: right now in the Okanagan, it’s a great market for sellers!
Of course, the decision to sell your house isn’t based solely on market conditions. You have to take your personal situation into account - and that’s when being informed on all there is to know about selling a home is very beneficial.
If you’ve been sitting on the fence, you’ll be glad to know that the right time to hop off the fence and list your house is anytime!
When is the Right Time To Sell Your Home?
It’s not so much the timing of when you put your home on the market, but rather pricing your home right for the current market conditions. The price you choose to list at will help set the right pace for your sale. For homes that are priced right, anytime can be the best time to sell.
With potential buyers having the ability to browse homes online 24/7, there’s always a market. Sure, the time of year can play a role in how quickly something might sell but even in historically slow times, there can be an advantage to list. For instance, if most are waiting until spring to sell their house, if you list in winter there will be less competition. When buyers have less choice, it can put sellers in the driver’s seat.
Factors to keep in mind when determining when to sell your home include: how quickly you need to sell, whether it’s a buyers or sellers’ market and seasonality.
People sell their homes for many reasons. Here are the most common:
Regardless of why you might be thinking of selling, sometimes talking about it can help the decision become more clear. A professional realtor can listen to your needs and help guide you to the right decision.
