Christmas, Boxing Day and The New Year!
It is inevitable that the housing market slows through November and into December. Some people’s minds move to the festive period, and they postpone their house hunting plans until the grim reality of January arrives!
However, house sales are agreed all year around! There will be sales done in December, houses will come for sale and viewers will be there. Ready to sell in December? Get the property listed!
There will also be a small amount of activity between Christmas and New Year although beware of any agent talking about Boxing Day being a great day to list your house! It isn’t. In the week after Boxing Day last year only four sales were agreed in the NR31 postcode as an example. In a usual week this will be around 20-30!
Even if you aren’t looking to launch your property for sale till the new year, it is still a very good idea to get valuations done and marketing prepared now to hit the ground running early January to capitalise on the New Year bounce. We would be delighted to come to see you to advise on this.
