I would list when your home and your expectations are aligned with recent market reality.
If you are asking whether the timing is right to sell, I would turn that question back to readiness. In Carstairs, AB, the recent market still supported 14 sales over the previous 30 days, so the better question is whether your pricing, prep, and moving plan are ready to match that pace.
Recent numbers in Carstairs, AB showed 18 new listings, 30 active homes, and 14 completed sales over the previous 30 days. A typical sale took 35 days, and recent offers landed at 98.5% of asking. That gives sellers a fair opening, but not a free pass. You still need to enter the market with your strategy already sorted out. I would not wait for a perfect sign from the market if your household is already ready to move. What matters more is whether you can launch with clean pricing and a realistic expectation of proceeds. The recent typical sold price of $555,000 and typical home value of $591,900 help anchor that decision. If your next move depends on selling first in Carstairs, AB, clarity matters more than delay. Get your home prepared before you choose a list date. Set expectations from recent closed prices, not from peak asking prices in your head. Use the 35-day recent sales pace to line up your next step before your listing goes live. Strong timing starts with strong preparation.
