When is the best time to sell a home in Houston

Question: When is the best time to sell in Houston?

Per Zillow, Spring is the best time to sell a house for more money.

The presumption that spring is the best time to sell a house is not necessarily correct. Seasonal weather is just one of the many factors that influence the time spent of a property on a local market. There are other factors that determine the best time to sell a house. These can be your finances, mortgage rate, and the local economy. These factors can affect the demand for homes, and can either drive up or down home prices.

Now you have answered your questions, here are some facts about the Houston market:

  1. According to RedFin, the average homes in Houston sell for about 2% below list price and go pending in around 28 days. On the other hand, hot homes can sell for around list price and go pending in around 7 days.
  2. Houston-area real estate agents sold more single-family homes than ever in 2020, despite the coronavirus pandemic and resulting recession. July 2020 as the most home sales for any month on record
  3. Sales did plummet in April and May 2020 as stay-at-home orders temporarily halted real estate activity.

There are other factors to help increase your selling price, and home selling can be an intimidating process if you decide to do it on your own. You might want to avoid the listing commission cost, but for sale by owner process can be just as costly. To make your life easier, you might want to consider hiring a real estate agent. They can show you a more accurate estimate for the best time to sell your house.
