🏠, Spring Home Trends Not To Be Sneezed At!

Published: Sat, 09/23/23

Hi ,

What’s your favourite season?

We’ve enjoyed the cosy glow of toasty fires and cheeky red wines but we’re ready for winter to end. And while we love outdoor dining in summertime and the taste of a refreshing G&T, we’ll soon be complaining about the unrelenting summer heat. Then we’ll start looking forward to the cooler temperatures and vibrant hues of autumn.

So, what about spring? The fickle month that leaves our heads spinning as it blends all of the above from one day to the next. Who loves spring best? Not hayfever sufferers, that’s for sure!

People who say spring is their favourite season are those who embrace change and new beginnings. The opportunity to ‘spring clean’ the home and clear out the cobwebs of winter gives some people a renewed zest for life. Spring’s warm sunshine, blue skies and blossoming gardens puts a sparkle back in the smile of many others.

If spring is motivating you to make changes, you'll love this season's home decorating trends...

The sleek and chic minimalist look of past years remains long gone, replaced by decor bursting with personality. Natural textures, earthy tones and block colours all feature in furnishings as well as fixtures and fittings this spring.

Sustainability remains high on the agenda, whether you're building, renovating or simply redecorating. Eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient choices are high priorities as we see a trend towards furniture repurposing and organic materials.

New home designs continue to incorporate the separate study, upstairs study 'nook' or stylish work-from-home space in open plan living, a left-over trend from covid days.

Another covid-inspired trend is outdoor living, where we've gained a greater appreciation for the green serenity of leafy outdoor spaces. The alfresco remains an essential, while big and bold household plants bring the outdoorsy theme indoors.

If spring is giving you itchy feet and it’s time to move, chat to us about how a property advocate can help you buy and sell in the spring market.

Stressed about selling?

There is no doubt that selling property is stressful. While we know there is plenty of demand in the current market, we still worry that our home won't sell. What if nobody bids? What should I do to present my property for sale? How much should I spend on marketing? A property advocate is there to support and guide you through all those tricky decisions, taking the stress out of selling your home.

What our happy clients have to say...

We love hearing what our happy clients have to say about their experiences with Chamberlain Property Advocates. We helped Shaun buy a home, here's what he had to say:

"Working with an advocate was the best experience and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone who’s looking to buy a property, particularly in this market. I couldn’t have been happier with the property that we got. I mean, it’s beyond my wildest dreams."

Wendy's Tips

One of the questions I do get asked by people looking to buy into the property market is, "should I be buying now or should I wait and save up more of a deposit?"

It is a personal question and it is based on your own personal circumstances, but I do believe that when we are in a rising market you are better off trying to just get into the market as soon as you can. Your first purchase may not be your forever home, but at least you are in the market. And any uplift in pricing will benefit you when it's time to sell that property and buy your next home.
