The first decision is not whether to list. It is how to enter with a price and timeline that hold up.
If you're preparing to sell in Redlands, CA, I would focus on getting the opening strategy right before anything else. The market still supports sellers, but the homes that start well are usually the ones that stay aligned with recent closings and real timing.
Last month, Redlands, CA showed 1.98 months of supply, a typical asking price of $704,700, and a typical closed price of $645,000. Recent offers came in around 100% of asking, while a typical sale took 65 days. Those numbers tell me sellers have an opening, but not a shortcut. That is why I think launch decisions matter so much. A seller-friendly market can still punish sloppy pricing or poor preparation when buyers have enough time to compare options. Your opening position needs to make sense on day one. If I were selling in Redlands, CA, I would price from what has actually closed and make sure the home is ready before going live. I would also plan for consistent follow-through across a longer selling window. If you're buying, I would take a well-prepared listing seriously because those are the homes most likely to defend their asking price.
