You CAN sell your house in winter

Traditionally spring and summer are the busiest times to market your home, but Ian Westerling, managing director of Humberts estate agents sings the praises of marketing your property over winter, claiming "I've always sold my own properties at this time of year."

 

Figures show that last year property website Rightmove had more than 500,000 visits on Christmas day, rising to 1.3 million hits on boxing day.

 

Despite this, many sellers are discouraged from marketing their property at this time of year, assuming the buyers won't be there. This leads to less choice on the market, and better odds for those who do decide to market their properties.

 

Below are a few simple steps which might pave the way to a successful winter sale;

 

 As with any time of the year, keep prices competitive.

 Be flexible with viewings, daytime viewings are best.

 Keep curtains and blinds open to let in as much light as possible.

 Offer a warm welcome. Have the central heating on, or even better, light the open fire.

 Never underestimate the importance of 'kerb appeal' and make sure the exterior looks just as good as the interior.
