The Truth About Boxing Day Property Launches: Is There a Smarter Way to Sell in 2025

The Truth About Boxing Day Property Launches: Is There a Smarter Way to Sell in 2025

A familiar strategy emerges among estate agents every December: the Boxing Day property launch.


🎄The Boxing Day Property Launch......🎄


Sellers are encouraged to rush to market for the post-Christmas surge, with estate agents' promises of increased exposure and eager buyers browsing online on Boxing Day.


While it may sound appealing, at Putterills, we believe this approach often fails to deliver the best results for sellers as bored online browsers often don't make good buyers.


🎅 The Pitfalls of a Boxing Day Launch 🧑‍🎄


Lost in the Crowd

Boxing Day is notoriously busy in the property market, with countless agents flooding portals with new listings. While buyers may be browsing, the sheer volume of properties means yours could easily be overlooked in the frenzy.


A One-Time Opportunity

First impressions count in the property market. Your property's launch is its chance to shine, and rushing to market without a tailored strategy risks squandering that opportunity. A carefully timed, thoughtfully planned launch ensures your property captures attention when the market is at its peak.


Agent-Driven Goals

Let’s face it: some agents push Boxing Day launches to boost their statistics, not because it’s the best move for your property. At Putterills, we prioritise your goals over ours, crafting a bespoke strategy that aligns with market conditions and your specific needs.
