May is looking like the prime time to list your San Antonio home for sale.
Why it matters: Sellers who listed their homes in May last year made more money on the sale than at any other time of the year, according to a recent Zillow report.
The big picture: The "best time to sell," per Zillow researchers, depends on where you live.
- Across the U.S., homes listed late last May sold for 1.6% more — typically $5,600 — than any other time of year.
Zoom in: Listing San Antonio-area homes in early May boosted the final sale price by 1.3%, or about $3,500, on the typical home.
Zoom out: Mortgage rates remain elevated this spring.
- Some shoppers have adjusted to higher rates, though many still feel priced out or find few options available.
What we're watching: "When rates fall, more buyers rush in, putting upward pressure on prices, which could happen at any time of year," Zillow senior economist Orphe Divounguy said in the report.
