The Best Months to Sell Your Home in Central Iowa

You’ve been thinking about selling your home in Central Iowa, but the headlines about interest rates are making you pause. Waiting might feel safer, but timing is everything.

On WHO Morning News with Jeff Angelo, I share tips on when to sell to get the most value for your home. Even with recent changes, rates are still lower than a few years ago, and selling during the right season can really boost your home’s price.

Interest rates are important, but so is the timing of your sale. If you’re buying or selling in May, June, or July, you’re in the time of year when most home value growth happens. A large portion of yearly appreciation happens during these months, while the other nine months make up about 30% of it.

If you wait past that window, you could miss out on that growth. Instead of selling when the market is more active, you may end up in a slower season where homes don’t gain as much value.

The market is showing some promising opportunities for sellers, so now could be a great time to take a closer look.
