Thinking of Selling This Summer? Here’s Why It’s a Great Idea!
While Spring has traditionally been the go-to season for selling property, Summer on the Mornington Peninsula offers a unique and powerful opportunity—especially if you’re considering selling your home or holiday property.
Why Sell in Summer?
More Buyers
Summer brings a surge of visitors and holidaymakers to the Mornington Peninsula. With more people enjoying the beaches, cafes, and coastal lifestyle, your property gets more exposure—right when it looks its absolute best!
Stand Out from the Crowd
Many homeowners wait for Spring to list, so the Summer market typically has less competition. That means your home has a better chance of standing out. The long days, natural light, and golden sunsets also create the perfect backdrop for stunning property photos.
Location, Location, Lifestyle
If your home is near the beach, has a pool, or is within walking distance to cafes and shops—you’re sitting on prime Summer selling potential. Buyers are emotionally drawn to lifestyle features, and Summer is the best time to showcase them.
Time to Prepare
Thinking ahead? Use this time to prepare your property—tidy up the garden, add a fresh coat of paint, and declutter to enhance your home’s appeal. A little effort now can lead to big results later.
Summer Selling Tip:
Create a Cool, Inviting Atmosphere for Inspections
When you know a hot day is forecast and you have an open home or inspection scheduled, preparation is key:
-
Turn on the air-conditioning early to ensure the property is cool and comfortable for visitors.
-
Open windows and doors (where appropriate) to allow natural light and airflow—it creates a bright, airy feel buyers love.
-
Style your outdoor areas with seating, cushions, umbrellas, or even a jug of cold water—help buyers visualise relaxing and entertaining in the space.
First impressions matter, and a well-prepared home can make all the difference!
