February Property Market Update in Long Sutton: A Great Time to Get Moving

As we move through February, the property market in Long Sutton and surrounding areas is already beginning to pick up pace. While spring is traditionally seen as the busiest time of year, February can be when the momentum really starts to build  and it can be a fantastic time to make your move.

Why February Works So Well for Sellers

Many homeowners wait until March or April to list their property, which means February sellers often benefit from less competition.

Buyers who are looking now tend to be serious. They’ve had the Christmas break, reviewed their finances in January, and are ready to take action. That means viewings are often more focused, and offers can come from genuinely motivated people.

If you’re thinking of selling in Long Sutton or the surrounding villages, listing now can mean:

• Standing out before the spring rush
• Attracting committed buyers
• Getting ahead of the competition

Kerb Appeal Still Matters (Even in Winter)

We know gardens aren’t in full bloom just yet, but first impressions still count. Simple things like clearing pathways, tidying borders, and letting in as much natural light as possible indoors can make a big difference.

Long Sutton attracts a wide range of buyers  from local families looking to upsize to those relocating for a quieter pace of life, so presenting your home at its best is always worthwhile.

A Positive Start to 2026

We’re already seeing steady levels of enquiries and an increase in valuation requests locally. Well-priced homes are continuing to generate good interest, particularly those that are well maintained and realistically positioned in the market.

If you’re unsure what your property might be worth in the current market, February is a great time to find out. Even if you’re not planning to move immediately, having an up-to-date valuation helps you plan ahead.
