Did you know the month that a seller lists their home affects their bottom line? Depending upon the weather, the sellers will sell faster and net the most money if they list their home in March. If you’re being hammered with snow right now, the best time for your market may be the first week in April.
How can you determine the best timing? Look for a significant increase in the number of new listings, usually sometime in February. The time to have your sellers list is several weeks later when this initial rush has passed and there is not as much competition.
To take advantage of this fact, pull together your social media, video, and print marketing campaigns, get in touch with past clients now, and make sure you’re in contact with the top people in your sphere (5 a day will yield 150 per month) each month. Remember, the first agent who meets with the seller face-to-face when they’re ready to list is the one who gets the listing.
One more thing. In case you didn’t know this, NAR says the best day to list a house is on Friday.
