The first 18 days after a property hits the market? That’s when it gets the most attention.
Buyers are constantly refreshing their feeds for new listings—especially in competitive markets like Nanaimo and the mid-Island. Most showings and online engagement happen in those early weeks, and homes that make a strong first impression tend to sell faster (and sometimes for more).
It’s not just a theory—industry data backs it up:
- The first few weeks = highest activity window
- Listings that stand out early often avoid price reductions
- Serious buyers are watching, ready to act
If you’re prepping a listing, the early days are your golden hour. Whether you’re a seller or a Realtor, it’s worth making those first impressions count.
