Two weeks until the school holidays and our house already has that end-of-term energy. 😂
Bags everywhere. Artwork that needs a home that isn't the kitchen counter. The general accumulation of a busy family life moving fast.
Every year, the slower pace of the holidays is when I notice my own home more. What's working. What's making things feel heavier than they need to.
And I hear the same thing from a lot of sellers this time of year: "We're thinking about selling in September — we'll get it sorted over the summer."
Here's my honest advice: don't wait until September to start.
The best results I see come from sellers who begin the preparation process 6–8 weeks before they want to go to market. That gives time to declutter properly, make any small improvements, and stage without rushing.
If you want to be market-ready for that September window, when buyer activity picks back up after the holidays, the time to start thinking about it is now.
I'm always happy to come and do a free walk-through and tell you honestly what would make a difference.
