When is it a "hot" market?
I know the market usually slows down during the holidays but when does it usually pick up again? I heard Jan-April is the time but I thought it was the summer..I'm confused

Re: When is it a "hot" market?
When we were looking at houses this summer, There was an abundance of homes for sale.
We officially moved in at the end of august,
I still browse MLS and have noticed that there are 50% less homes for sale right now then when we were looking this summer.
Not sure what that means.
This past june/July there was 130 homes for sale in the plainedge school district
Now there are 60-70 for sale.

during the spring a lot of houses come on the market because people want to move in the summer - so their kids can finish out the school year and then when they move the kids can start in a new school at the begining of the next school year.

That is interesting. I'm hearing beginning of May so you may be right.
ETA: Maybe most people wait right before the summer so if their house sells in time, most children can start a new school by Fall.

This is what I noticed (and was told) - I was looking for 16 months and hit two Spring's during that time.

i think early-mid spring. people want to be closed and in the new house in time for the beginning of the school year.
