Spring Into Action 5 Essential Steps to Selling Your Home This Spring

Mark the date – Thursday 20th March 2025.

It’s the day we can officially wave goodbye to winter and welcome the fresh energy of spring.

But it’s not just the season that’s changing. Spring is also the busiest time of year for the property market, with buyers eager to make their next move.

If you’re considering selling this year, now is the time to prepare. Follow these five essential steps to ensure you’re ready for 20th March.

1. Start Now – Timing is Everything

If a 2025 move is on your mind, don’t delay. Last year, 80% of our home sales took an average of 8 weeks from instruction to an agreed sale. Add on the conveyancing process, and you’re looking at late summer or early autumn for your move. Getting a head start now will give you the best chance of a smooth sale.

2. Choose the Right Agent

Selecting an estate agent is one of the most important decisions you’ll make. Invite three local agents to value your property and compare their approach. Look for:
✅ A realistic valuation (not just the highest number)
✅ A proven track record in your area
✅ A strong marketing strategy to showcase your home
✅ Positive client testimonials or Google reviews

At Redrose, we pride ourselves on honest valuations and expert local knowledge—just see our google reviews from our happy clients!

3. Give Your Home a Spring Refresh

A deep clean and declutter can work wonders. Homes that are bright, airy, and well-presented attract more attention from buyers. Plus, great marketing photos will make your listing stand out online. A little effort now can pay off with a quicker sale and better offers.

4. Get Your Paperwork in Order

One of the biggest delays in property sales comes from missing paperwork. Get ahead of the game by gathering:
📄 Warranties & guarantees
📄 Planning permissions & building regulations
📄 Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)
📄 Mortgage details & leasehold information (if applicable)

Not sure what you need? The Redrose team is here to help guide you.

5. Make Sure It’s the Right Move for You

Selling your home is a big decision, so take the time to think it through. If you’re ready, now is an excellent time to sell. With strong demand and a fresh influx of buyers, spring offers the perfect opportunity to achieve the best price for your home.
