The optimal time to sell depends on your individual circumstances. If you require more space for a growing family, you may feel a sense of urgency. Conversely, if you are downsizing, you might not be in a hurry. A useful tip is to observe your neighbourhood—if there are numerous “For Sale” signs, it may not be the best time to sell. Fewer available properties can lead to higher prices, whereas a surplus of listings may give buyers more leverage in negotiations.
