Buying and selling over Christmas

Many people think that trying to move house or even put their home up for sale over the festive period is a mistake, but that is no longer the case. People have more free time and motivation to make a change in time for the New Year, so it can be a great time to buy and sell.

If your home has been sitting on the market with no progress, you’re not stuck. Switching estate agents is easier than you think, if you understand your contract and prepare properly. Here’s the truth, the timelines and the process to relaunch with impact.

Autumn may not be the first season that comes to mind when people think about moving, but it can be a surprisingly strong time to sell. Buyers who are still active at this stage of the year tend to be serious about completing before Christmas or the new year. With the right preparation, your home can stand out and attract motivated buyers even as the nights draw in.
