If you’re thinking about putting your home on the market, this is the perfect time to act. Sure, it’s still winter, but decision-making and the listing process can take a little time, so you don’t want to delay and miss those first glorious days of spring. Spring is the peak season for real estate, with the warmer weather bringing buyers out to open houses and homes and gardens looking their best.

1. Get ahead of the market

With many vendors placing their property on the market in spring, getting in early will ensure that current buyers will notice your home first. Choice has been more limited during winter, so buyers will be keen to look at your newly listed property, and it will stand out before the market becomes crowded.

2. Sell before Summer

By listing your property now, you have a much better chance of getting the hard work out of the way early. With our long holiday season, the November social calendar can fill up quickly, so take action now while buyers have time on their hands.

3. Cozy factor

If heating is a feature of your home, take advantage of the remaining chilly days to show it off. There’s nothing more inviting than stepping out of the cold and into a traditional home with a cozy wood heater. The luxurious warmth of underfloor heating, or the look of a stylish gas fireplace and modern lighting in a contemporary home add great appeal to the homebuyer.

4. Sunny days

While there’s still a chill in the air, the sun is starting to shine, so you have the opportunity to really show your home at its best, getting rid of winter gloom with a spring clean. With the lawns green, gardens blooming, and fresh air flowing through your home, buyers will easily envision pleasant afternoons in the sun-filled rooms and gardens.

5. Give yourself time to buy

Don’t miss out on your dream home because you’re still waiting on a sale! By getting your existing property on the market, you are making a big step towards your next purchase. Early spring is a great time to be buying, too – you can more easily spot evidence of problems with damp and drainage, while seeing just how the morning sun will light up your prospective home.
