Selling Your Home This Summer? Why July is One of the Best Times to List Your Property

Selling Your Home This Summer? Why July is One of the Best Times to List Your Property

Why July is a Prime Month for Sellers

July offers a perfect blend of warmer weather, longer daylight hours, and increased buyer motivation. Families are preparing for the new school year, professionals are planning relocations before autumn, and the market traditionally sees a surge in activity before the holiday lull in August.
If you're considering listing, now is the moment to prepare and here’s why:

1. Buyers Are Motivated to Move Before Autumn

Many of our clients, especially aspirational families, are aiming to settle into their new home before the school term begins. That means they’re actively searching now and ready to move quickly.

2. Your Home Looks Its Best in Summer Light

Lush gardens, bright interiors, and beautiful exteriors shine in natural summer light. With professional photography and considered staging (which we handle for you), your home will stand out more than ever.

3. The Market Cools Off in August - Beat the Dip

Come mid-August, holidays and summer breaks slow down buyer activity. Listing in early July gives your property a window of peak visibility before that seasonal pause.

4. More Daylight Means More Viewings

Longer evenings allow for flexible viewing times, perfect for busy professionals or families juggling summer schedules. More flexibility means more eyes on your property.
