Best Time To List A Home For Sale

• Orlando homes listed for sale in the first half of June sell for $1,600 more than the average listing throughout the year.
• Homes listed on a Saturday are viewed the most on Zillow within the first week of listing.

More Money, Faster Sale

The best time to list varies by metro area, but not by much.  In 29 of the 35 large markets analyzed, the magic two-week window fell between the second half of March and first half of June.

The two-week magic window doesn't just mean more money, it also can mean a faster sale.  Time is money, so the benefits of listing at the right time are even greater.

The Magic of Saturdays

Saturday listings get the largest number of views by Zillow users in the first week of listing nationally and in the 12 largest 35 metros.  Friday is a great day to list as well, with homes listed that day getting the most views within a week in 10 of the top 35 markets.  At the other extreme, Tuesday is the worst time to list, nationally.  Saturday listings end up with about 20% more page views in their first seven days on the market than Tuesday listings.
