This Sunday, the clocks go back one hour as British Summer Time ends

This Sunday, the clocks go back one hour as British Summer Time ends — bringing shorter days, darker evenings, and cosy nights in! While we all enjoy that extra hours sleep, the change in light can affect how your home looks to buyers.

 

At Deakin-White Estate Agents, we know how to help your property shine this season:

 

💡 Light it up – Use warm lamps, candles, and soft lighting to create a welcoming glow.

🏡 Boost kerb appeal – Keep paths clear, add porch lights, and tidy up fallen leaves.

🕯️ Create cosiness – Add throws, warm colours, and subtle autumn scents to make buyers feel instantly at home.

📅 Be flexible – With darker evenings, consider daytime or weekend viewings for the best first impression.

And for families, the clock change is the perfect time to enjoy an autumn walk, a lazy breakfast, or a movie night together. 

Don’t forget to check your smoke alarms and outdoor lights while you’re at it!

 

With buyers’ keen to find before Christmas, now’s a fantastic time to list your property.
