The Post-Fourth Push: Why July Listings Get Noticed
Think it’s too late in the season to sell your home? Think again. The weeks following the Fourth of July can be one of the best times to list your home on the South Shore. With summer in full swing and buyer activity high, July listings often capture the spotlight.
📅 Less Competition Means More Visibility
Many homeowners either listed in spring or are holding out until fall. That means fewer homes are hitting the market in mid-summer—making your property stand out in a less crowded field. Fewer listings mean more eyes (and potential offers) on yours.
🌞 Summer Buyers Are Serious
Summer buyers are motivated. They’re looking to close quickly and settle in before school starts or fall schedules ramp up. These buyers are often pre-approved and ready to move fast, creating a perfect opportunity for well-priced, well-staged listings.
📸 Homes Show Their Best in July
Green lawns, blooming flowers, and sunny skies make July the ideal time for professional photos and showings. From coastal homes in Marshfield to historic properties in Hingham, the South Shore shines in summer—and your listing can too.
💼 The Right Time for the Right Buyer
Even if spring brought a wave of buyers, July is when relocators, vacation home seekers, and those reacting to job changes often hit the market. Your home might be exactly what they’re looking for—but only if it’s listed.
