Wat is de beste tijd om je huis te verkopen?

Are you considering selling your home and wondering when the ideal time might be? While homes are sold year-round, there are specific periods when selling can be more favorable. Let’s dive into the data.

Less Favorable Months

According to data from CBS (Statistics Netherlands), February and June are typically the least favorable months for selling a home. Over the past five years, an average of 16,634 homes were sold in June, and only 14,733 in February. If you want to maximize your sale, it might be wise to avoid these months.

Most Favorable Months

On the other hand, December and July are the months with the highest average number of home sales. Over the past five years, an average of 22,048 homes were sold in December, and 18,799 in July. If you’re aiming to get the best results from your sale, December and July are statistically the most promising months.

Ranking of Months

Here’s a ranking of the months from most to least favorable for home sales:

  • December: 22,048

  • July: 18,799

  • March: 18,398

  • August: 17,643

  • October: 17,542

  • May: 17,006

  • January: 16,869

  • April: 16,780

  • September: 16,780

  • November: 16,647

  • June: 16,634

  • February: 14,733

Put the Numbers in Perspective

While these figures provide useful insights, it’s important not to take them as absolute rules. Just because more homes are sold in December than in February doesn’t mean you can’t successfully sell your home in February, nor does it guarantee your home will sell for top dollar in December.

Conclusion

While certain months may statistically be better for selling your home, your personal circumstances and the current market conditions play a significant role. By staying alert to market changes and working with an experienced real estate agent, you can maximize your chances of a successful sale, no matter the time of year.
