Methodology
To determine the best time to list a home, weekly listing metrics such as prices, listings, and days on market from 2018-2019 and 2021-2024 were analyzed. Each week was compared to a benchmark set by the first full week of the year. The year 2020 was excluded due to atypical market conditions caused by the pandemic. By averaging data across these years, typical seasonal trends for each metric were identified. Percentile levels for each week were calculated for each metric and then averaged to create a “Best Time to List” score. Weeks were ranked based on these scores
