What About The Children?
Showing your home to prospective purchasers can be stressful enough, but children add an extra dimension and their needs should be considered.
Moving house might be logical and exciting for an adult, but the fear of the unknown can be upsetting for children. That room or corner of the garden that has been their special place for most of the child’s life is about to be taken away from them, as they are rocketed out of their comfort zone into unknown … Continue Reading…
November 2016 Property Market Comment
The property market depends on fluidity and activity to be regarded as healthy. This year the number of transactions has been light, based on a dearth of supply. This has itself fed the problem with sellers being reluctant to put their property on the market if they only have a limited choice of onward purchase.
But this seems to be easing. Last month, HMRC reported a 1% increase in transactional volumes – a small but significant step in the right direction … Continue Reading…

Three Branches – Our Secret Weapon
One could argue that the more offices an agent has, the more exposure your property will enjoy. But would you really benefit if your agent has a branch in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, Cardiff and Southampton as well as East Northamptonshire? Highly unlikely! Don’t be impressed by the sheer size of an agency – the only buyers that matter to you are those who may be interested in buying your property in your area.
However, we find that one of our most effective “secret … Continue Reading…

The Critical Importance of Referencing
In an ideal world, once a tenant has been found, it would be good to think that you, as a landlord, can simply sit back and watch your investment deliver the anticipated return on investment without further involvement. Indeed, this is one of the reasons why some letting agents only offer a tenant finding service. Simple really – or is it?
Experience is a great teacher, and we have proven time and again that tenants must be fully referenced before signing, … Continue Reading…
