The best time of year to sell a house in Fort Collins, CO
In Fort Collins, CO, homes have sold for the most in May and the least in November. Over the last three years the gap between those two months worked out to about 7% of a typical year's price.
The short version: list in May if you want the highest price, and expect November to be the softest month of the year.
Speed follows a slightly different calendar. Homes in Fort Collins, CO have gone under contract fastest in May. That is not always the same month prices peak, because the busiest month usually brings the most competition from other sellers too.
The most homes come on the market in May. More listings means more buyers looking, but also more homes competing with yours.
