The Best Week To List Your House Is Almost Here – Are You Ready?

According to Keeping Current Matters, if selling your home is on your 2025 to-do list, now is the perfect time to start preparing. Market trends suggest that the best week to list your home is quickly approaching—and getting ahead of it could give you a real edge.

Why April 13–19 Stands Out for Sellers

Each year, spring tends to be a strong season for home sales. But this year, the week of April 13–19 is shaping up to be especially favorable for sellers. A recent Realtor.com analysis—based on years of historical data—reveals that homes listed during this particular week are likely to experience greater buyer activity, faster sales, and potentially higher selling prices.

In fact, homes listed during this prime window could sell for thousands more than those listed earlier in the year. And with more motivated buyers actively searching in the spring, your property could attract more interest right out of the gate.

How to Prepare Your Home for the Market

If you want to take advantage of this opportunity, now’s the time to get started. Partnering with a trusted real estate agent can make all the difference. A skilled agent will guide you through:

  • Identifying which updates or improvements will have the biggest impact
  • Prioritizing tasks to maximize your home’s appeal quickly
  • Making smart, cost-effective changes to help your home stand out

Even small upgrades—like fresh paint, improved landscaping, or updated lighting—can go a long way toward catching a buyer’s eye.

What If You’re Not Ready by April?

No worries—there’s still plenty of time to make a move this season. While April 13–19 may be the sweet spot, the spring housing market overall remains competitive and active. With the right strategy, you can still benefit from strong buyer demand throughout the coming months.
