If you’re thinking about selling your home in Minnesota, timing can affect how quickly your home sells and the price you obtain. Homes sell all year in Minnesota, but some seasons are typically better than others.

Here’s a quick overview:

Spring: The Best Overall Time

Spring (March–May) is typically the strongest selling season.

• Buyer demand spikes as the weather improves

• Homes show better with natural light

• Yards shine as fresh growth returns

• Higher chance of multiple offers

Summer: Still a Strong Option

Summer (June–August) remains active, especially in the early months.

• Buyers are motivated, especially families with children in school

• Homes show well with lush landscaping and outdoor spaces in full use

• Longer days often equate to more showings

Fall: Fewer Listings, Serious Buyers

Fall (September–October) can also be a great time to sell.

• Less competition with fewer listings

• Buyers are more focused and tend to be more decisive

• Cooler weather and fall colors can make homes more inviting, both inside and out 

Winter: Still a Good Possibility

Winter (November–February) may be quieter due to the weather, but:

• Less competition with fewer homes on the market

• Buyers are very motivated

• Warm lighting and fireplaces create welcoming, cozy settings

• Homes prove durability during the coldest months
