OnTheMarket.com looks at why autumn is the perfect time to sell your property and highlights what potential buyers and sellers should consider.
Generally the market tends to be stronger in the spring and then picks up again in the late summer and early autumn. The UK’s largest independent estate agent, haart, explains that your property will obviously sell more quickly when the market is strong and demand is high. Therefore keep an eye on the property market and remember to check out prices.
House sales are also affected by interest rates. Few people are willing to take out a mortgage when the Bank of England has voiced intentions of raising interest rates. Look out for what is happening in your local area. Ask estate agents what they are selling and search online property transaction databases such as OnTheMarket.com for sales in your area.
