The best time to sell a home is between April 12 and April 18, when prices are higher, demand is strong, and homes sell faster—about 10 days quicker than average. During this week, median listing prices are around $5,300 above the annual average. Homes in the Northeast and Midwest perform well, while those in the South and West face softer conditions. Buyers may face higher prices and competition then, with better buying conditions expected in mid-October.
