When Should I List?

The time is now

Savvy sellers are recognizing the extreme dearth of supply in the current marketplace and seizing the opportunity to come to market now given the opportunity to stand out among the limited competition. This increases the probability of multiple offers which, in turn, increases the potential net proceeds to the seller.

The typical rhythm of any given year in our resort communities will see the greatest swelling of new listings come to market once most resorts shut down operations in late April through June. This stands to reason as homes show optimally allowing for opulent photography and longer days for touring. However, savvy sellers willing to come market when competition is absent are often rewarded with stronger transactions and potentially greater yield versus those that follow the conventional path standing shoulder to shoulder with competing listings.

The end of winter often reveals those that have exhausted the use of their mountain home and are ready for new adventures resulting in a glut of inventory from late April through Memorial Day. A phenomenon that is misaligned with the shopping habits of the typical Tahoe consumer and results in extended time on the market.
