Whether you are an existing homeowner or this is your first time buying or renting, don’t allow the seasons changing to get in the way of the time that you’re planning to move. 

Autumn is a great time to move properties and in this article, we are going to be giving you some reasons why it is a great time for change.

Perfect timing to be settled in for Christmas and the New Year

When you buy or agree to rent a property in the autumn and make that move by the end of the season, you will be settled in your home in time for Christmas and the new year. It’s a great time to make a fresh start and decorate for the season.

Weather and sunrise/sunset times

While we know that Manchester is renowned for its unpredictable weather all year round, autumn is usually a great time for the perfect balance of warm and cold weather. It’s a perfect time to plan your move as there are still earlier sunrises and later sunsets so it’s a fantastic opportunity to make the most of it before the cold winter sets in.

Popular season for buying and selling

Due to the reasons above, this is why autumn is a popular season for estate agents across the UK. The cosy atmosphere of a home, autumn scents, and the warm pops of colour in the decor allows potential buyers and renters to feel like these touches make a house a home.

Garden duties can be held until the spring

The great thing about autumn is that the garden can be listed lower on the priority list until spring arrives the next year. This is because autumn is known as the dormant season for gardening. Of course, you can still keep on top of it until the cold weather arrives. Planting all year-round plants such as Cercis Canadensis or Acer trees.
