Spring is like the glittering launch of a new iPhone—everyone wants one, and the queues are insane. Garden flowers bloom, and so do For Sale signs. You’ll have tons of choice, but you’ll also face fierce competition.
Estate agents will smile at you harder, but prices are often at their peak because everyone is out looking. It’s a seller’s market, so be prepared to bid over asking price and maybe sell a kidney on the side. The energy is fun, though, especially the free prosecco at viewings.
If you’re a patient warrior with a fat mortgage offer, spring can work. Just don’t expect a bargain—you’ll be paying for the sunshine and the daffodils.
