summer holiday: The best time for sellers to list their properties is early May or April, research suggests, but there are advantages to putting a home on the market this weekend, according to Market Watch. While this is a popular weekend to travel, school is still in session so many people are still waiting to go on their summer vacations. Memorial Day Weekend is the busiest summer holiday for real-estate activity, a recent study from real-estate company Home Light found. A lot of home buyers are hitting open houses instead of the beach, said Holden Lewis, housing expert at personal-finance website Nerd Wallet. The busiest week last year occurred two weeks before Memorial Day weekend, with 148,000 listings. Last year, 142,000 listings came onto the market in the week leading up to Memorial Day weekend, according to data from Realtor, making it the third-busiest week of the year for new listings.
