When is the Right Time to Sell Your Home?

by Susan Coleman 06/18/2018

With the continued supply and demand imbalance and the high buyer demand, home sale prices remain very high. And this can be very tempting to home owners. But how do you know if it’s the right time to sell?


It’s impossible to “time” a market, and you’ll drive yourself crazy trying! So, the question of when to sell really comes down to a single factor: you. In other words, when does it make sense for you to move?

Here are some common reasons you might decide to sell:

  • You’re maturing out of your home
  • Your home has become too much work
  • The space just doesn’t work for you anymore(maybe there are too many stairs)
  • You’re an investor looking to “cash in”
  • You want to move to a better school district

Any of these sound familiar? They’re all great reasons to discuss your options and strategies for getting the best possible outcome from this market. In the end, you’re the only one who truly knows whether or not it’s time to sell. But, a great realtor can help make this decision much easier.
