How Long Will It Take To Sell Your Home?

How long does it take to sell a home?  There is no easy answer – some homes sell in a few days, others may take several months.  What I DO know is that my cooperative system will make it the shortest time possible.  The proper balance of these factors will expedite your sale:

According to statistics based on the National average of homes sold, about 40% of homes sell within the first month of being on the market.

However, houses that don't sell in the first month often remain on the market for months and months and usually don't sell until significant price adjustments have been made.


There are many factors which impact how long it will take to sell your home. The condition of your home, it's location, market conditions and the price are usually the most significant.


We will conduct a thorough comparative market analysis by searching the database of all homes listed or sold in your area.  With this current market data, we will be able to determine what your home might sell for and how long it may take to sell if you decide to put it on the market.


Key Market Factors to Selling

 LOCATION…

n  Location is the single greatest factor affecting value and time on the market.

n  Neighborhood desirability is fundamental to a property’s fair market value.

COMPETITION…

n  Buyers compare your property against competing properties.

n  Buyers interpret value based on available properties and past sales.

TIMING…

n  The real estate market may reflect a seller’s market or a buyer’s market – you can’t have both at once.

n  Market conditions cannot be manipulated, only honestly interpreted; an individually tailored marketing plan must be developed accordingly and you have my word on this.

CONDITION…

n  Property condition affects price and speed of sale.

n  Optimizing physical appearances and advance preparation for marketing maximizes value and appeal.

TERMS…

n  The more flexible the financing, the broader the market, the quicker the sale and the higher the price.

n  Terms structured to meet your objectives are important to successful marketing.

 PRICE…

n  My system will make sure you obtain every possible dollar.

n  My experience in negotiating often times results in even higher net proceeds.
