What Is The Best Time of Year To Move in Croydon?

Compare My Move found that the best time of year to move in Croydon is during the Summer. According to our data, the most popular month for a house move within Croydon is August, closely followed by July and September. With less chance of rain and longer, warmer days, it’s no wonder homemovers prefer to complete their property move during the Summer months.

In addition to being the best time of year for the move itself, it is also a cost effective time to move into your new home. The Summer means lighter and warmer evenings, contributing to lower gas and electric bills. At an expensive time such as buying and moving home, this can be highly beneficial.

In contrast, the least popular time of year to move was Winter, with the fewest amount of moves in Croydon taking place in January and February, according to research from Compare My Move.

What Is The Best Day Of The Week To Move In Croydon?

Our data found Sunday is the least popular day, with just 6.5% of Compare My Move movers choosing to move house on this day. This is not surprising considering many estate agents and conveyancers are closed on a Sunday, which could mean delays if you need to contact either on the day you move.
