One of the most common questions we get asked is, “on average, how long do houses sit on the market before being sold?” The average right now for the last 12 months is north of 100 days in our area. So why do some houses sell in a few days while others take months? It depends on 3 factors: First is the “Desirability” of the home in terms of location, layout, specifications, updates, presentation, amenities, etc. Second, is the pricing of the home relative to what buyers are paying for comparable homes. Third, is the knowledge, skill, hardwork, and relationships that your Realtor must apply in order to maximize the value of and to sell your home.
