How long does it take to sell a house?

When it comes to selling your house, our experience allows us to understand what it takes to get your house sold as quickly as possible and for the best price.

When is the best time to sell?

There are many factors to consider when you’re looking at the best time to sell your home. The first are the market conditions. This includes the supply of homes for sale, demand for those homes and the number of people looking to buy in your area. You want to sell when your home will have the greatest value, but also when it won’t be sitting on the market too long before going under contract. This also depends on your personal situation. Are you relocating? Is your job changing? Are you downsizing or looking to upgrade? All these things can affect what’s best for you as a seller. For advice on selling your home, contact our experienced team to get started.
