SUMMER SELLING: WHY DECEMBER to FEBRUARY IS A SELLER'S POWER WINDOW

Thinking of making a move?
Here’s why summer is one of the strongest times of the year to sell in the Central West:

Homes look their absolute best
Long daylight hours, green gardens, blue skies - your home photographs beautifully and attracts more online attention.

More active buyers
Expats home for Christmas, upsizers planning for the new school year, and buyers eager to move before interest rates shift again.

Outdoor living sells
Decks, gardens, patios and those classic Grey Lynn villas shine in summer. Buyers instantly imagine living here.

Serious buyers are ready to act
Those still shopping at this time of year aren’t browsing - they’re motivated and ready to commit.
