Average Age of a First Time Home Buyer

How Old Is the Average Human When They Decide to Sell the Doghouse?
Paws-itively Speaking, of Course! 🐾

Hi fur-iends, Becky the Goldendoodle here—your resident Barketing Manager and expert in all things real estate (and squeaky toys). 🐶 Today we’re tackling an impawtant question:

"How old is the average human when they decide to sell the doghouse?"
(That’s human-speak for selling their home... but we know who really runs the place. 🐾)

šŸ” The Truth Behind Selling the Doghouse

Most humans decide to sell their homes when something big changes in their lives—like adding more pups to the pack, getting a new job, retiring, or just realizing they need more (or less) space for belly rubs and snack stations.

According to the National Association of REALTORSĀ®:

  • First-time home sellers are usually around 35 years old. They’ve outgrown their starter den and are looking for a bigger yard (maybe even one with a squirrel or two).

  • Repeat sellers tend to list their homes around 55 years old, often to downsize or relocate. (Finally time to trade snow shovels for sandcastles? Yes, please. šŸ–)

But whether you’re 25 or 75, here’s the real answer:

šŸ‘‰ The average human sells the doghouse when life tells them it’s time for a new adventure. And when that day comes? You’ll want a loyal guide by your side—like me (and my highly trained team of humans).

🐾 Signs It Might Be Time to Sell Your Doghouse

  • You need a bigger (or smaller) space for your pack

  • Your location no longer fits your lifestyle (or your commute’s become ruff)

  • You want to cash in on equity and chase new dreams

  • You’re ready for something fresh—new floors, new view, new vibes!

🐶 Here’s How I Help Humans Fetch Top Dollar

As the Barketing Manager for A Notch Above Group, I don’t just wag my tail and look cute (okay... I also do that). My humans and I help sellers:

  • Stage the space to shine (yes, we fluff pillows AND dog beds)

  • Price your home paw-fectly using real-time market data

  • Market it to serious buyers who are pre-approved and ready

  • Negotiate the best offer without giving away your treats

  • Guide you from ā€œFor Saleā€ to ā€œSOLD!ā€ with less stress and more tail wags

The Bottom Line:
There’s no magic age to sell the doghouse. Just the right time—and the right team—to help you do it.
