The autumn property market remains buoyant. This month, there have been record asking price rises across every region of Britain and for every property type, from first-time buyer homes to family houses. This 'full house is an extremely rare event, happening for the first time since March 2007.

Here are five reasons why this could be the perfect time to sell.

1. You'll Be Putting Your Home in Front of a Record Number of Potential Buyers.

There are more people looking to move than the number of homes available to buy, and it's a hugely competitive market, so sellers have the best chance of finding a buyer this year than at any other time in the past 10 years. 

2.There's a Good Chance You Will Get the Best Price For Your Home.

Asking prices have hit record highs this month, so if you're thinking of selling in order to make a move next year, it's a great time to arrange a property valuation from an estate agent. You might discover that you can sell your home for a lot more than you bought it for, even if you've owned it for just a year or two.

3. Your Budget For Your Next Home Might be Bigger Than You Think.

If your home is valued for more than you bought it for, your search for your dream property might start to look different. New possibilities that you may not have considered could start to open up, from locations you assumed you were priced out of, to homes offering more space, or a garden. And the good news is that we're starting to see more properties coming to market this month, so fresh new choice is slowly growing.

4. You Will Become a 'Power-Buyer'.

With many homes being snapped up quickly and sellers having a choice of competing buyers, 'power-buyers - those who have already sold their own property subject to contract or have nothing to sell - will have the most powerful negotiating hand when they eventually find 'the one'.

5.Mortgage Interests Are Still Low

Mortgage interest rates are lower than ever and lenders are keen to offer mortgage loans in a competitive market. The window is open for movers who wish to sell and buy again before a likely interest rise, although it's widely expected that rates will remain comparatively low.

The team were extremely professional, friendly, and approachable from the minute we asked for a valuation right until completion.
