September is a Great Time to Sell Your Property
September has long been seen as one of the best times of year to sell property in the UK. With the summer holidays over and Christmas looming on the horizon, many buyers are eager to move quickly and complete before the festive season. This seasonal pattern means September often marks a strong period for sellers who want to achieve a sale at a good price.
This year there’s added motivation as uncertainty surrounds the Autumn Budget, with speculation about possible changes to property taxation at landlords’ expense – see What Rachel Reeves’ Property Tax Plans Could Mean for Landlords and Tenants.
Why September Works in Your Favour
- Strong autumn market – Activity traditionally picks up in September and October, when buyers return from summer and want to settle into a new home before the end of the year.
- Deadline pressure – Many buyers aim to exchange and complete before Christmas, which creates urgency and helps drive deals forward.
- Budget considerations – This year there’s added motivation as uncertainty surrounds the Autumn Budget, with speculation about possible changes to property taxation that could affect buyers and sellers.
What Sellers Are Seeing on the Ground
While national data shows house prices growing at a modest pace, many estate agents and landlords are still reporting strong interest from serious buyers this September. Realistic pricing remains key, but where demand is high, sellers are achieving solid offers and in some cases competitive bidding. Even a small uplift in price – or simply securing a faster sale before market conditions shift – can make a big difference.
Why Act Now
For landlords and homeowners thinking of selling, September offers a window of opportunity:
- More motivated buyers in the market
- Higher chance of completing before year-end
- Potential to avoid the impact of any new taxes or rules announced in the Autumn Budget
If you’ve been considering selling, this could be the right moment to act and protect your equity.
