4 Reasons to Sell This Autumn

Autumn might not be the first season that comes to mind when you think about selling a home, but the truth is—it’s an excellent time to make your move. From strong buyer demand to less inventory, this fall could be the window of opportunity you’ve been waiting for. Here are four compelling reasons to sell this autumn:

Buyer Demand Is Still Strong

Don’t let the cooler weather fool you—autumn buyers are out in full force, and they’re serious about finding their dream homes. Many are going head-to-head for the same listings. According to the National Association of Realtors (NAR), homes sold in just 28 days on average in July 2025. That’s a clear sign that motivated buyers are still in the market and ready to act quickly when the right home becomes available.

There’s Less Competition

Inventory remains tight this season, which gives sellers a major advantage. In Baltimore County, supply is still well below the six-month threshold that typically defines a balanced housing market. Simply put, there aren’t enough homes to meet buyer demand. This means your property has a better chance of standing out and attracting competitive offers—without being lost in a sea of listings.

There May Never Be a Better Time

Thinking about upgrading to a larger or more expensive home? Waiting could cost you. CoreLogic’s latest forecast suggests U.S. single-family home prices will rise by about 3.8% between November 2024 and November 2025. That increase impacts both your down payment and your future mortgage costs. Selling now allows you to capitalize on today’s equity while stepping into your next home before prices climb higher.

It’s Time to Move On With Your Life

At the end of the day, numbers and forecasts matter—but so do your personal goals. Think back to why you decided to sell in the first place. Is waiting really going to serve you, or is it time to take that next step? Whether you’re downsizing, moving closer to family, or ready for a fresh start, autumn could be the season where you finally move forward and start living the life you’ve been envisioning.
