Current property value estimates aside, if you’re 100 percent honest with yourself, you’ll realize that there really is no such thing as a good time to sell your home. This is, however, more of an emotional than a practical issue. Letting go of a home and a neighborhood you love can be difficult for you and your family, but if you wait too long, you might miss out on the best chance to put your home on the market.
As far as real estate reports show, things are looking up for Sacramento home sellers if what they’ve been waiting for was a stable market:
