Now, it is time to put your home on the market. First impressions are everything when it comes to selling a home. Spring is a season when the housing market tends to be saturated with inventory, so you’ll want to make a memorable first impression with your home photos.
After you have cleaned your home and it is ready to list, here are some action items to get you ready for the move!
Book Your Movers from Winter Moving & Storage Early
It’s just before peak moving season and spring is a busy time for movers. Be sure to book your professional movers at least a month or two in advance of the move. We offer free moving estimates and can help you store your items if needed.
Have a Yard Sale
As you are packing and getting ready for the move, spring is the perfect time to declutter and purge your household belongings. We recommend getting rid of unnecessary items before putting your home on the market. Need help getting rid of your belongings? With plenty of people spending time outdoors, spring is the perfect time to host a yard sale. It’s also a great time to donate warm weather items to charities, given that people will be in need of these items soon.
Only Spring Moving Drawback – Pollen
One major drawback to moving during the spring months is the pollen. If you’re dealing with spring allergies, we recommend taking allergy medication on moving day. This will give you one less thing to worry about on an already stressful day. Keep in mind that pollen count tends to be highest in the early morning hours, so if you’re an allergy sufferer, and you can manage pulling off a mid-morning or afternoon move, we recommend doing so.
Move While the Kids are in School
Are you trying to move while having school-age children? If you’re moving nearby, then try arranging for the movers to come after the kids have left for school. Unlike the summer months (when the kids are home all day, every day), you can take advantage of the kids being in school during the day. This may make the moving process easier and more seamless. Plus, choosing a weekday move date could end up being cheaper than moving on a weekend, when movers typically charge more.
When is the Best Time to Move?
Spring is often considered the best time of the year to move for a number of reasons. First, you’re more likely to sell your home for the most money in the spring. This is due to an increase in buyers, as many families with school-age children are looking to move as soon as the school year ends! While you might have to deal with a few downpours, you won’t have to put up with bitter temperatures, snow, ice or sweltering heat. In most parts of the country, the weather is nice and cool during the spring – perfect for moving. Finally, the spring season symbolizes new beginnings and a fresh start. What better way to start new than in a new brand home? If you’re looking for a fresh start, spring is the time to move.
