If your house has extremely weird issues, then no, you don’t want it to sit right now and have a bad listing history when you relist in the spring. Otherwise, list. Our house wasn’t perfect but it was move-in ready and in a great neighborhood on a so-so street. We felt lucky to squeak in.


That’s encouraging. Our home is well maintained, built in 2014 by a great builder. Neighborhood is very family oriented and safe. We are hopeful it sells quickly. Our last home sold in one day. But that was 2019.

You want to close by the start of school?

It’s possible but list ASAP.

A lot depends on your specific home and market. There are serious buyers any time of year. If your home is desirable and the homes in your area are holding their value, then it's a good time.

Awesome! We were worried that back to school plans/school zones would make it a bad time.

Good luck PP!

Nope we're listing in two weeks.

Not at all. Listing in the shoulder season will bring out only the serious buyers, not the lookie-lous who are bored on a Sunday afternoon.

If the home is priced appropriately and is in fantastic shape, is it too late in the season to list? We are moving out of state and hoping to get the house listed now and sold before school starts. Too ambitious?
