If you are thinking of selling in 2017, do NOT wait until January.
There is always a reduction in the number of people out viewing property in December as attention inevitably turns to Christmas. Shopping, social and work nights out, and the freezing weather, as well as homeowners not waiting people visiting, all mean that viewing activity is very low.
BUT, viewing properties online that are available for sale peaks during the festive period and we're told by Rightmove is at its highest between December 24th and New Years Day. If I were selling, I would want my property online having all those eyes gazing at it, wouldn't you?
January brings New Year Resolutions, as well as the festive period meaning time off work, and family time, to discuss and plan a house move, an investment purchase, a re-mortgage, and its a time traditionally when a lot of people get together.
Supply and demand is a massive factor when selling too. So when your property goes online for sale in January, it is going online alongside all the other January sellers, and you've more competition. Go online before the rush and you'll be raking in the viewing requests as one of only a few properties on the market, so come January you'll already have people pencilled in ready to visit the moment the decorations are down.
You'll be one step ahead of the rest. And you'll be under offer and planning a move whilst they are still waiting for the photos to be taken.
So, if you are thinking of moving in the New Year, don't wait until January, get in touch now and allow us to discuss your requirements and prepare you for a pre-Christmas launch.
And if that weren't enough of an incentive, get a valuation and instruct us to market pre-Christmas and we'll give you 10% off our standard rates.
