Seller Question: How long will it take to sell my home?
/by Brian Huie on 4/10/2024
From reaching out to an agent until closing, can be anywhere from four weeks to one year.
Seller and home preparation is typically the longest part of the home selling process, and we will guide you to create a plan that suits your needs, optimizes your home for the market, and determine the best time to list your home. For some sellers this may take a matter of a couple weeks, and for others this may take several months. For this reason, we recommend reaching out as soon as you start considering selling, this will prevent any surprises in your timeline, and allow you to meet all of your home selling goals. Once you (and your home) is ready, we will begin marketing preparation. This phase takes about 2 weeks, and includes staging, a variety of high quality media, printed materials and more. For most homes in our region, the listing phase (when your home is on the market) goes pretty fast and can be as short as one week. After a buyer goes under contract to buy your home, the sale typically closes in 10 to 30 days-- with most financed homes now only taking 2 weeks to close!
Your timeline, home, and needs may be different. As your agent, my aim is to sell your home quickly, get you the most return on your investment, and help you achieve your specific goals. I will always create a timeline suited to your individual needs. To learn more about the seller timeline, as well as my seller services, check out this page.
