Timing depends on market conditions, pricing strategy, and property type.
In today’s market (2025), homes in New Haven County that are priced correctly and well-prepared often go under contract within 30 to 45 days.
If a property lingers longer, it’s usually because:
-
It’s overpriced compared to recent comps.
-
The condition or presentation doesn’t stand out.
-
Marketing reach is limited (poor photos, no video, no social exposure).
When I prepare a home for sale, I start with a custom Equity & Market Analysis, professional photography, and a Coldwell Banker Listing Concierge plan to ensure maximum online visibility.
This process consistently shortens time on market and attracts multiple offers.
Pro tip: Seasonality matters less now; serious buyers search year-round online, so the right digital strategy trumps timing.
