A question that often gets asked in our marketplace near the end of wintertime is, “Should we list our home when there’s still snow on the ground?”
In the course of a calendar year, most sellers end up selling during the spring. However, if you list your home while there’s still snow on the ground, you’ll be able to compete more effectively while inventory is lower. You’ll also face less competition from other sellers. When there’s less competition, pricing is more stable because there are just enough buyers to churn through low inventory levels.
In other words, listing your home during the snowy winter is an advantage for sellers. On average, the NAR states that 12,561 homes get sold every single day in this country. If you’re thinking about selling your home, don’t let the weather stand in your way.

If you’re worried about how the outside of your home looks, you can always use photographs that were taken during spring or summer and incorporate them into your home’s online listing profile.
