A fair time to sell

Prices in Westmorland and Furness are +5.1% on a year ago and +2.2% over the last three months. Sales recorded in the last 12 months are -36.2% compared with the year before (459 vs 719), a sign of how busy buyers are.

Recent months of Land Registry data are always incomplete because sales take a few months to register, so the latest volumes can look low.

Tips for selling in Kendal

Spring (March to June) and early autumn are usually the busiest times for buyers. Price realistically from recent sales on your street, get your energy certificate sorted early, and compare a few local agents' fees and valuations.
