The housing market tends to be seasonal, and as you’ve probably heard, spring is usually when buyers and sellers come out of hibernation and start flooding the market, regardless of where you live.

Back to school season

Let’s face it—finding the right home can take awhile, and the home buying process in general can get pretty complicated. And because most home buyers will prefer to be all settled into their new place before kids go back to school, it only makes sense to start looking for a new place well before the end of summer break.

Although you can still find some great deals on Boca homes and condos for sale during the holiday season, it makes sense why most people prefer to wait.
