Every market has its season—and May isn’t just another month on the calendar.
It’s when sellers statistically have the upper hand. According to ATTOM’s new analysis of 47 million home sales over the past decade, homes that close in May deliver the highest return—on average, 9.5% above market value.
So… why May?
Because the housing market isn’t rational—it’s emotional.
Spring makes people move. School calendars create urgency. Warmer weather makes home tours more inviting. And for many, it’s simply a season of transition—jobs shift, leases expire, and there’s that universal itch to start fresh before summer. That emotional momentum? It shows up in the numbers.
I’m not telling you to list your home tomorrow.
But I do believe having the right data leads to better decisions.
That’s my job—to help you see the bigger picture, spot the patterns, and stay informed, so you’re never navigating blind.
