Is There a Time Not to List Your Home???
It is that time of year when I hear the following from our clients:
• Time to take my home off of the market.
• Don’t want my home on the market during the holidays.
• Nobody looks at homes this time of year.
• I will wait until spring to relist the home.
I decided to run some statistics from my home county, Dawson county.
I took the two slowest back to back months and compared them to the two busiest back to back months
Nov-Dec July-Aug
Homes for sale Avg 267 Avg 339
Homes sold Avg 20 Avg 35
Percentage of sale/vs sold Avg 7.5% Avg 10.32%
In other words a mere 3% was the difference between the busiest back to back months and the slowest back to back months.
During the busiest time 3% LESS in sales would have resulted in 1.05 less homes being sold
During the slowest time 3% MORE in sales would have resulted in .6 more homes being sold
So what I want to convey to my clients is this: The difference between the slowest time of the year and the busiest time of the year is very small in terms of statistics. And: IF YOUR HOME IS NOT LISTED YOU HAVE A 0% CHANCE OF SELLING!
