How long will it take to sell my home?

Rating: +0

Positive Negative

This question is difficult (actually, impossible) to answer. A good real estate agent can tell you the Average Days On Market (DOM) for your area, but it's just that--an average. Some homes will sell faster than the average DOM, some will take longer.

Houses sell based on three primary factors:

* Condition
* Location
* Price

The interaction of these factors, combined with the overall market conditions in your area is what determines how quickly your home will sell. A properly priced home, in good condition in a desirable location will always sell--in any market. An overpriced home, regardless of condition or location may never sell. A home in poor condition or a poor location has to be priced accordingly in order to sell.

Unfortunately, it's impossible to say for certain how long it will take to sell your home. A good agent can give you an estimate, but it's just that. There are simply too many factors to accurately predict how quickly a home will sell.
