Here are seven reasons why Boxing Day is one of the best times to put your property on the market with a local estate agent.
1 RECORD ONLINE TRAFFIC
- Rightmove and Zoopla on Boxing Day tend to see a huge surge in activity
- Most people are off work and relaxing at home, scrolling through property sites, and of course, some of those are potential buyers.
- If you list your property on Boxing Day whilst view numbers are high on property portals, then your property will reach the highest audience possible, giving your property maximum exposure, therefore increasing your chance of finding the right buyer for your property in Borehamwood.
2 GETTING AHEAD OF THE COMPETITION
- Most property owners in Borehamwood wait till January to list their property with a local estate agent
- Your property is likely to stand out before the New Year rush due to early visibility
- .Your property won’t be buried among other properties online, so more chance of serious buyers seeing your property online.
3 MOTIVATED BUYERS ARE LOOKING
- A lot of the buyers who are looking over the Christmas Period are serious about moving.
- Many of these buyers are eager to move and some have just sold their property so keen to keep their buyer and secure an onward property purchase.
