Times are changing and you’re thinking about finding your family or new business a new home. But before you start searching for your next dream real estate purchase, you’ll need to figure out when you’re going to sell your existing property. The decision is a complex one, especially considering the unpredictable economic environment we’re living in now days. And while there’s no magic formula for determining the best time to sell your real estate, there are several factors you should consider.

The wrong time to sell
This likely won’t come as a big surprise: some times are more desirable than others. However, if you are upside down or have a particular situation, the current market may not be the best time to sell your property. Some also think the best time to sell is in the spring or summer months. We, at Sherwood Baskerville Real Estate does not subscribe to that thought process. Our philosophy, buyers are always looking and that also includes the winter months. If a property is marketable and priced appropriately, a buyer will know a good buy when they see it. This is true for our market and may not apply to the current market where you may be located.

The best season for selling
Conventional wisdom dictates that the best time to sell your real estate is when you are actually ready to sell, no punch lists for garages have to be cleaned out. As you already know, you only get one time or chance to make a first impression. So, the more you can stand out in condition, curb appeal and competitive pricing, the better your odds will be on getting your property sold.
