A seller's guide to staying calm while the market works
If you're deciding how many showings you should expect and how long to wait for an offer, I want you to plan for a process, not a single weekend. In Gilbert, AZ, recent results point to a sale timeline measured in weeks.
Here is the constraint I plan around based on the previous thirty days a typical sold home in Gilbert, AZ took 49 days last month, and closings averaged about 97.89% of asking. Supply stood at 3.02 months recently. The practical impact is that you should set your household expectations early. A market where closings are under asking and the timeline is multi-week rewards sellers who stay consistent with showings and adjust proactively if feedback points to price or condition. Some metrics were not reported for this period, but you do have enough to build a calm, structured plan. Commit to making showings easy for the first several weeks, because a 49-day typical timeline means you need consistent exposure. Treat feedback about price seriously, since the market has been closing under asking on average and buyers will negotiate if they feel misaligned. Decide now how you will respond if you do not have an offer by your first review point, so you can move decisively instead of reacting emotionally.
