Knowing when to put your house on the market can be a tough decision but for a pre-Christmas move September is the perfect choice.
Once the children are back to school, parents have more time to give their attention to moving home. In addition to this houses are still glowing from the summer months and gardens are still in full colour. Evenings are still light into mid October and quite often the UK is blessed with an Indian Summer making viewings more pleasurable and showing homes off in their best light.
School application processes are another reason why September is such a buoyant month in the property market. Families with young children looking for a new home will want to be settled into their desired catchment area in time for the deadline for school applications at the end of January.
Sellers and buyers see Christmas as a huge milestone in the year with many people determined to move before the big day meaning marketing your property in September is a great start in achieving this goal.
