And how sellers can prepare their homes to meet demand
Today’s buyers are more informed than ever. They’ve researched the market, inspected multiple properties and know exactly what feels right (and what doesn’t) often within moments of walking through the door.
Understanding what buyers are prioritising in 2026 can help sellers position their homes more effectively and create stronger emotional connections.

What February sellers should know before making their move
As summer winds down and routines settle back into place, many homeowners begin to seriously consider selling. With Autumn approaching, the question often becomes: Is this the right time to make a move?
While there’s no one-size-fits-all answer, understanding how the Autumn market works (and how early preparation can be beneficial) can help you make a confident, informed decision.

And how the Pantone Colour of the Year can help your home stand out

Trends come and go, but when it comes to real estate, the most successful homes share one thing in common: they make buyers feel something the moment they walk through the door.

Pantone’s 2026 Colour of the Year, Cloud Dancer, reflects exactly what today’s buyers are craving – light-filled spaces, calm interiors and a sense of effortless comfort. While it may look understated, this soft neutral plays a powerful role in how homes are perceived, experienced and remembered.
