Many potential buyers are simply not on the market during this time of year, as
school-aged children settle into routines and the gainfully employed focus more on

buyers are equal. Consider instead the first-time buyers with no children, relocated
employees, investment buyers, bargain hunters and those with generally fewer ties
to established routines.
