Why Autumn Is the Perfect Season for House Hunting in Thanet 🍂

Autumn House Hunting in Thanet

The weather is dreary, and Christmas is on the way. Right now might seem like a terrible time to jump into the housing market… or is it?

You might be considering waiting until the new year to begin house hunting, but let us explain why starting in autumn could work in your favor.

1. Less Competition Means More Time

In autumn, fewer people are on the hunt, making the market less frantic. This gives you more time to view properties, reflect on what you want, and submit thoughtful offers. Fewer buyers in the market can also improve your chances of having an offer accepted on your dream home.

2. Timing for a New Year Move

Starting your search now allows for all the paperwork to be completed during the winter months, making it more likely that you'll be ready to move by early spring. Moving just before Christmas sounds romantic, but beginning your search now could set you up for a smoother, better-timed move.

3. Spotting Potential Issues

Viewing properties in autumn gives you a realistic look at potential issues. Cooler, wetter weather makes it easier to spot problems like damp or heating inefficiencies, which can be factored into your offer price or budget for repairs.

In conclusion, while the season might feel off-putting, autumn could be an ideal time to dive into the property market. Whether you’re buying, selling, or both, we at Cooke & Co are here to guide you through every step.
