Sell now or wait until next year?

Hello,

I took up a new role OOS and technically I should have  moved out of state along with my family by now , I am just hanging around at my current place doing my best to postpone the move due to the uncertainty of the pandemic, the delta variant and all that jazz.I am not really sure if I can stretch this any further but one thing is certain that I must sell but however there is one thing creating a dilemma now whether I should sell now or wait until next year?  With winter just around the corner is it a bad idea to put on sale?If I wait until next year there will be some inconvenience to my family that I will have to leave them for up to six months probably less depending on when I will put 

my property on sale. I will appreciate your thoughts on what would be an optimal time to sell given I have some capacity to wait.

I will appreciate your inputs 

Thanks

My two cents: Don't try to time the market. Just because you list it doesn't mean that you have to sell it so there's no harm in trying at any time. So if waiting will cause a large inconvenience to you and your family, try to sell now.
