Why 2024 Could Be the Perfect Year to Sell Your Home

This year could be the perfect time to sell your home—and here’s why. According to a recent NerdWallet survey, 15% of people are planning to buy a home in 2024. That’s the highest percentage recorded in this survey (see graph below):

Here’s why this is exciting news. Since 2020, the percentage of prospective homebuyers has remained between 9-11%. This recent uptick suggests that buyer demand hasn’t disappeared—if anything, it shows that many buyers are ready to re-enter the market.

While we may not see the same surge in demand as in previous years, this increase indicates an upward trend in market activity. More buyers are stepping back into the home search process, which means sellers will have more opportunities to connect with motivated purchasers.

Some buyers who postponed their plans over the past few years are now ready to make their move. Whether they feel more financially secure, have saved enough for a down payment, or simply don’t want to delay any longer, 2024 is the year they’re planning to take action.

Additionally, the same NerdWallet survey found that more than half (54%) of potential buyers have already started browsing homes online.

This is a strong signal that many buyers will be actively searching during the peak homebuying season this spring. By working with an experienced agent who can ensure your home is well-prepared, competitively priced, and effectively marketed, you can maximize your chances of attracting these eager buyers.
