What is the best month to sell a house? (hint: Time to SPRING into action)

When is the best time of year to list your home? It really depends on the geographic area that you live in, but in a lot of areas, spring seems to be the best time.

I looked at the results, for the triad MLS, the area around Winston Salem, and for the past three years, June had the highest number of closings, so those would have gone under contract in May and April.

So spring sounds about right. Things start ramping up in March.

The rest of the summer and early fall are also decent months to list a home.

As far as the price per square foot that you might get - there used to be some seasonality, a dip in the winter months, but it's really not as big of a deal lately because of how tight the market has been.
