Strategically pick your listing time - This is an impeccable step that can really make or break it for your house. Just like picking the right day and time to book a flight, you need to pick the right day and time to list your house for sale. According to Zillow's study, home owners who list their homes for sale between May 1st and May 15th sold thier homes within 9 days on average. Also, houses listed on Fridays or Saturdays received the most prompt responses.
Take your climate into consideration - This is another tip on when to list your house for sale depending on weather conditions where you live. If you live in a warmer state with less snow, you can start listing your house farther in advance, perhaps in March or April. If you live in a colder state where inclement weather conditions are common, you should wait until the weather "breaks" or wait until at least late April to May to list.
Be aware of what's around you - You can guarantee that home buyers will be looking around your neighborhood and what's for sale, so it's vital that you take this step, too. Of course we would never suggest you sell your home below its value, but at the same time, if there's 10 houses up for sale in your proximity and they're all comparable to your house but with a cheaper price tag, its a guarantee that their house is a competitor. Be aware of your surroundings and you will sell your home in no time at all!
