Top 3 Benefits of Moving to Columbus in the Spring

Published: March 15, 2021

Getting ready to buy a home in Columbus? Like many other home-buyers, you’re probably looking to make your next big move during the summer months. Maybe the kids are on summer vacation. You might be counting on the sunny weather on moving day. Whatever your reasons, you have your heart set on a summer move. There are some benefits, however, to moving to the Columbus area in the spring that you might not have considered. The moving veterans at UNITS Moving & Portable Storage of Columbus have listed their top three favorite advantages of moving in the fall below!

You’ll avoid the crowds. Late spring and summer are the most popular times to move. That, in itself, makes these months perhaps not the most ideal for your move. In the Columbus area, professional moving and storage services become most expensive during the summer months due to this high demand. If you wait until March, April, or May, however, you’ll likely find that not only are these services more budget-friendly, but also that it’s easier to book your preferred moving time and date.

You’ll have cooler weather. Although Columbus doesn’t have the most harsh summer weather, it’s still no fun to unload all of your belongings in 80+ degree heat. Instead of moving into your new home in a haze of sweat and heat exhaustion, consider moving in the spring so you can move during a crisp, breezy day. 

You’ll increase your buying power. While there are definite benefits to buying a home when the housing market is most active – during the summer months, naturally – there are some advantages to buying a home in a slower market. You’ll have less pressure to make an offer and you’ll be less likely to enter a bidding war, which can be quite stressful.

Overall, the spring months can provide a much more relaxed home-buying and moving experience. Whenever you decide to move to your new home in Columbus, though, we’ll be ready to welcome you!
