A tight supply picture can help you, but your pricing still has to match what is actually closing.
If you are deciding whether to list now or hold off for a better window, I would not wait for a cleaner setup unless your home is not ready. In Edina, MN, recent supply was just 0.82 months, which gives sellers a favorable backdrop, but pricing still needs to reflect what buyers have actually been willing to pay.
Last month, supply stood at 0.82 months, recent sale prices averaged about 98% of asking, and the typical closed price was $1,647,500. The typical asking price for active homes was $1,550,000 over that same recent period, and that asking level was 11.42% lower than the prior month. For a seller in Edina, MN, the answer is straightforward the market is supportive, but buyers are still responding to price discipline. I would read this as a timing advantage only if the home is presented and priced in step with the market. A typical sale took 28 days recently, which is healthy, but it is not a license to overreach. In the last 3 months, new listings in Edina, MN showed a typical 19 days on the market, while recently closed homes showed a typical 32 days. That gap matters. Homes that enter cleanly and at the right number can move faster, while homes that miss the mark can take longer and lose momentum. Price from recent closed behavior, not from your best-case target. Get the home market-ready before day one so you can take advantage of the limited supply. Review the first two weeks closely, because fresh listings have been moving faster than older ones in Edina, MN, and early response should guide your next decision.
