Many would answer that the spring is the best time to list. It is very true there are a larger number of buyers in the market in the spring and the warmer months, however there is also a greater amount of inventory of homes on the market at that time as well. More inventory is more homes for your home to compete with. I find buyers looking in the winter The Winnisquam echo: months to be more focused and motivated.
