G: TLDR:

• Most homes are sold: Spring to early summer (April–June).
• Best prices: Also late spring to early summer, but peaks in June.
• Ideal overlap (high volume + high price): May–June.

---

Details:

• Most transactions: Historically, April through June sees the highest number of home sales. This is due to better weather, school calendar planning, and buyer competition.

• Best prices: Prices tend to peak in June or July, when competition is strongest and inventory is still reasonably available.

• Low competition + better deals: Late fall (October–December) and winter (January–February) often see lower prices, but also fewer listings and longer time on market.

Ideal time to:

• Sell at top dollar with lots of buyers: Late May to early June.
• Buy with less competition and possibly better deals: November–February, especially around the holidays.

Let me know if you want this broken down by region or recent market shifts (e.g. post-COVID patterns).
