Why Fall Can Be a Great Time to List Your Home

Many sellers think spring is the only good time to list. Fall can work just as well, and sometimes better.

Why fall works

  • Buyers who are out looking are usually serious. They want to move before the holidays or the end of the year.

  • Fewer homes are for sale than in spring, so yours stands out.

  • Mild weather in North Texas makes showings comfortable.

How to get ready

  1. Clean the gutters and tidy the yard. Fresh mulch and a few seasonal plants go a long way.

  2. Make the entry warm and welcoming with a clean door and good lighting.

  3. Let in as much natural light as you can, because days get shorter.

  4. Take photos early in the day.

  5. Price your home based on recent nearby sales, not on what you hope to get.
