Should you sell your home in February?

As the days start getting later and we finally start moving towards the end of winter, you might start to think about selling your home. 

There's no bad time to sell, but February is one of the best months to get your home on the market. 

We've put together a few reasons why you should think about selling your home with us this February.
 

People have recovered from the January slump

After the business of the Christmas season, can be an exhausting and expensive time of year. With the long wait between pay-days, people can feel demotivated and less likely to commit to purchasing a home. By the time February rolls around, people are back into the swing of things and more likely to be in the property-purchasing mindset.

The market is back in full swing

After the lull of December, the housing market begins to pick back up in January and really comes alive in February. Spring and its build up are the busiest time of year for property sales, and if you get your property listed early then you have a better chance of standing out in a crowded market. 

Houses are more appealing

Between the cold temperatures and dark days, the depths of winter can be a hard time to market a house. In February the cold starts to thaw and it stays lighter for later, which makes property viewings much more pleasant. First impressions are everything, so the nicer weather that February promises will make your property much easier to sell.
