Spring Real Estate Market

Are you asking yourself when the best time to sell is? Have you heard about the Spring Real Estate market and you’re not quite sure what that means? Spring in the Real Estate market is now! We’re busy over here, and the cold weather and record-breaking snowfall isn’t stopping Buyers from looking, nor is it stopping Sellers from selling. So, we wanted to share a little insight with you. The “busy” season in Real Estate is often referred to as Spring, but “Spring” in our world doesn’t necessarily mean actual Spring, nor does it mean when the weather is “nice.” In Wisconsin, waiting until the weather is nice, could actually mean waiting awhile.

FACTS:

Statistically, in prior years, home sales spike in May, June, and July. What does that mean for you, the potential Buyer or Seller? More homes are closing in May, June, and July which indicates homes are listed and on the market in March and April, to give the typical length of 30-45 days from accepted offer to closing.
