For as long as we can remember, Spring has always been seen as the peak period for the Sydney property market. However, Autumn does offer plenty of opportunities for buyers and sellers too. With Interest rates at an all time low, there are plenty of prospective buyers looking to enter into the property market.

Sydney is one of the most sought after cities in the world to live in, so no matter what time of year it it, if the price is right, you will always have buyers wanting to inspect your property. The good thing about selling in Autumn is that you will not have as many other properties to compete with as you would in the typically busier seasons. This in turn may help improve the chances of your property selling quicker and for a higher price.

A great idea to maximise your homes potential is to create a space that looks warm and inviting as the weather starts to get cooler. Make sure there is plenty of light in the house especially if you have an afternoon open for inspection. Take special care of your gardens as well, even if it means replanting small plants that bloom in Autumn to ensure there is colour and life. Remember first impressions count!

With the weather much more comfortable in the Autumn months, people are often more likely to go out and attend open homes so now could be the perfect time to start the conversation about selling your home.
