As the sun shines brighter and the days grow longer, many of us start to feel that familiar itch for change and new beginnings. Summer is not only a great season for vacations and outdoor activities but also the perfect time to move house. Here are a few reasons why the warmer months could be your ideal time to make a move, along with insights into current market conditions and how you can take the next steps with ease.
Longer Days and Better Weather
Summer offers longer daylight hours, providing you with more time each day to organize, pack, and move without rushing. The pleasant weather also means fewer delays due to winter storms or early darkness, making your moving process smoother and less stressful.
School’s Out
For families with children, summer is an ideal time to move because it avoids disrupting the school year. Children can finish their school term before moving and have time to settle into their new home and neighbourhood before the new school year starts. This transition can be smoother and more comfortable for everyone involved.
Favourable Market Conditions
Historically, the housing market peaks in the spring and remains strong through summer. More properties are typically on the market during these months, giving buyers a wider selection of homes to choose from. Sellers benefit from increased buyer activity, which can lead to quicker sales and potentially higher offers. Our recent analysis confirms that this trend continues, with robust activity and enthusiasm in the residential markets across Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, and Buckinghamshire.
Easier to Sell Your Current Home
If you’re looking to sell your current home, summer is often the best time to do so. With more potential buyers out house hunting, you’re likely to sell your property more quickly and at a competitive price. Enhanced curb appeal in summer—from blooming gardens to lush green lawns—also makes your home more attractive to prospective buyers.
Vibrant Community Life
Moving in summer allows you to experience your new neighbourhood in full swing. Community events, markets, and festivals are abundant in summer, providing great opportunities to meet neighbours and make new friends. This vibrant community life can help you feel at home much quicker.
