October gives sellers less useful evening light every week. 🌇
Once the clocks change in most places, a 5:30 showing that felt bright and open in September can become a walkthrough in the dark. It's a small shift that changes a lot: buyers can't see the yard, the natural light you're selling doesn't show up, and rooms photograph — and feel — smaller.
A few things that help:
- Get your exterior photos taken on the next bright afternoon
- Turn on every light before a showing, and replace any bulbs that don't match the others
- Open the blinds before a daytime showing so the remaining natural light can do its job
- Light the walkway and the entry — the first ten seconds happen outside
- Add a lamp to any room that only has an overhead light
None of it costs much. The point is to adjust before the first dark showing catches you by surprise.
