As spring turns to summer, May is one of the most active and opportunistic months in real estate. At Move Forward Real Estate, we’ve seen firsthand how this time of year brings new listings, motivated sellers, and great financing options. If you’re thinking about buying a home, here’s why May might be the right time to make your move.

1. Inventory is Blooming

Spring traditionally sees a rise in listings as homeowners look to sell before summer. This May, inventory has picked up noticeably, giving buyers more choices across various price ranges and neighborhoods.

 

2. Perfect Timing for Families

Closing in May or early June means families can move and settle before the next school year. That window of time makes May ideal for transitions that minimize disruption.

 

3. Curb Appeal is at Its Peak

There’s something about blooming flowers and green lawns that makes homes show better. Sellers are investing in curb appeal, and buyers benefit from seeing a property at its best.
