Everything you need to know about timing the Sacramento selling market.
If you’re considering selling your home, you’re likely wondering when it’s the best time to list the house for sale and get the most money possible. To help you figure this out, we have analyzed the market trends and put together a few tips.
Historically, the best month to sell your Sacramento home is June. According to a recent Redfin study, you can get up to $38,000 more than the average sales price by selling your home in June. Understanding the best month to sell your house can help increase the number of buyers who are interested in your home and increase your sales price.
Another way to get top dollar is to analyze your local market trends. The good news is that an experienced real estate agent can provide valuable data and insights into historical local trends for you. For example, in over 20 years of selling homes in the greater Sacramento region, we have seen that June and July are the best months to sell each year.

In addition, the location of your home plays a major role in determining the best time to sell. In some areas, the summer season can see a surge of potential buyers, while other locations may see more activity in the winter months. In the greater Sacramento market, we found that spring and summer have proven to be the best seasons for selling.
Lastly, look at the average days on market and closing times. Don’t just accept an offer; look at how long other homes have stayed on the market before getting sold. This will help you determine whether or not you’re making the right decision.
If you’re thinking about selling your home, don’t leave anything to chance. Be sure to consult with a trusted local real estate agent who can help provide you with expert insights into your local market. Also, know that now is the perfect time to get into spring cleaning and sprucing up your yard to optimize your curb appeal.
