Here are the best times to sell a house
  
Conventional wisdom has long held that the best time to sell a house is in the spring and summer months. But does the conventional wisdom hold up to cold, hard facts? 

Property data company ATTOM Data Solutions analyzed nearly 15 million home sales between 2011 and 2017. Here’s some of what they found: 
  • May is the best month to sell a home. Homes sold in this month received on average Why do warmer months perform better? According to Realtor.com, selling a house in warmer weather means more accurate comps (since more area homes are selling), blue skies and bright flowers (which improve the appeal of nearly every property), and heavy competition for homes (which sometimes results in bidding wars).5.9% more than their estimated market value.
  • April, May, June, and July present the top months for selling a home.
  • Avoid — if you can — the final quarter of the year unless you’re in a warm weather climate.
 
Attom broke it down further, identifying not only the best months to sell but the five best DAYS, too. They are: 
  1. June 28: The seller premium is 9.1% above market
  2. February 15: 9% above market
  3. May 31: 8.3% above market
  4. May 29: 8.2% above market
  5. June 21: 8.1% above market
