Who Said Selling in January Was a Good Idea?

Actually, we did – and here’s why 🏡

As we emerge bleary-eyed from the festive period, dark skies and cold mornings in tow, on the face of things, January might not seem like the obvious time to sell.

Contrary to that belief, the formative months of the year can offer the ideal conditions to get the best result for your home sale.

Buyer Demand is High

Serious buyers are out there, motivated by the New Year and a fresh determination to secure their ideal home. In 2024, we saw record levels of viewings and offers across Greater Glasgow, Ayrshire and the Central Belt.

 

Limited Stock = More Attention

As mentioned, demand for property has arguably never been higher, and with limited numbers of properties on the market, yours could stand out… Fewer competitors = more viewings, more interest, and potentially higher offers.

 

Catchment Area Rush

Timing is everything for families keen to secure their place in top-performing school catchments. Many want to move to ensure they are settled before the next academic year begins.

So, while others wait for spring, you can take advantage of the January window – we are on hand to discuss your home and the local market in wider detail.

 

Local Market Highlights

Prices Soar in 2024

House prices across Scotland achieved a record-high last year and that trend looks certain to continue through 2025 with lenders forecasting as much as a 5% growth.

Cash Buyers

Most of our clients opted for a sell-first strategy in 2024 to make themselves as attractive as possible, so there plenty of cash buyers ready to take action.

The Importance of Pricing

We always strive to be accurate in our pricing strategy, and our considered approach helped our clients achive over 2,000 successful sales as a business last year.

How to Start the Process

Before selling your home, you should have all the facts and data to make a truly informed decision. To get started, we encourage you to arrange a no-obligation market appraisal of your home.
