Most of the snowbirds use Easter as a departing time for the season. So, the earlier it is, the earlier they depart. Some use April 15th!

In Florida, it has in the past, yet I am now seeing a continuation of the 'Snowbird Season' beyond that as more and more retire.

I expect we'll still be in snow and ice this Easter!  The holiday doesn't really have an effect on my business though.

The seasonal activity does drop off after Easter, but not as bad as in the early years.

There is enough local activity around Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia to keep me busy year round but I do notice a slight uptick after Easter until about Halloween.

Yes, every year Easter does affect our Market, here in our community Kevin J. May.  It's one of two scenarios!  Either family comes down earlier to visit parents/grandparents for a week's vacation around the Holiday, or, family goes back to their home state for the Holiday and their snowbird season is effectively over for this year, until again when they return, in the Fall.  I'm a fan of Easter being later, also!

My business is not affected. When i was selling new home communities that were 55+, Easter would mean a huge boost in sales when families came home and were brought to see homes for sale

It will be a slower weekend but there will be some relocation buyers in town to buy because that is their spring break time.
