Planning to Sell in 2025? Here’s the Best Week to List Your Home

If you've been considering putting your house on the market, you might be wondering about the best time to do so. Historically, the week of April 13-19 has been a standout period for home sellers, according to a
Realtor.com analysis of market trends over the past years. But if you’ve just missed this window, don’t fret! The spring housing market is still in full swing and offers numerous opportunities to successfully list and sell your home this season.
Why is mid-April typically ideal for home sellers?
Higher Sale Prices
Homes listed during this week have historically sold for approximately 6.7% more than those listed at the start of the year. This trend underscores the potential for higher returns on your investment during this peak listing period.

Enhanced Visibility
Listings can receive up to 17.7% more views during this week compared to an average week on the market. More eyes on your property means a higher chance of finding the right home buyer quickly.
Quicker Transactions
Properties tend to sell about 9 days faster than usual. This can be a significant advantage if you're looking to make a swift and efficient sale. Even if the ideal week has just passed, the remaining spring months continue to offer great potential for those looking to sell a property.
Here’s how you can still capitalize on the bustling spring market:
How to make the most of the spring selling season:
Preparation is key to a successful sale
Ensure your home is looking its best. Consider minor renovations or touch-ups that could enhance appeal and add value. Remember to keep your curb appeal in mind, it's the first impression a potential buyer sees when they come to tour.
Timing your home sale is essential
While mid-April is optimal for selling your house, home demand remains strong throughout spring. Work with your
local REALTOR to monitor local housing market trends to choose the best possible listing date and strategy to get your house sold.
Marketing your home effectively
Utilize high-quality photos, virtual tours, and staging techniques to make your house listing stand out in the MLS. Ensure your home’s online presence is strong with detailed descriptions and appealing visuals. According to the
National Association of REALTORS (NAR),
97% of potential home buyers start their house search online.
