Spring Market Momentum: Why May is a Smart Time to Make a Move

As the flowers bloom and lawns green up, May isn’t just about garden clean-ups and warm weather—it's one of the most active and opportunity-rich months in real estate. Whether you're thinking of selling your home or entering the market as a buyer, the spring market brings strong momentum and unique advantages.

At Assist 2 Sell, HomeWorks Realty, we know how to help you take full advantage of this dynamic season—and keep more money in your pocket with our low flat fee.

🌸 Why May Matters in Real Estate

• Increased Buyer Activity:
  Longer days, nicer weather, and end-of-school-year planning all combine to bring more buyers into the market in May. For sellers, this means more showings and more serious offers.

• Fresh Inventory for Buyers:
  Many sellers list their homes in May to take advantage of the spring rush. For buyers, this means a wider selection of homes and potentially better negotiating power before summer competition heats up.

• Curb Appeal is at Its Peak:
  Homes look their best this time of year. Blooming gardens, green grass, and sunny days help make a great first impression—an advantage for sellers looking to stand out.

• Perfect Timing for Families:
  With a typical closing window of 60–90 days, a May transaction positions families to move over the summer and be settled before the new school year.

💰 What This Means for Sellers
