Richard James Joins forces with Agents across the UK, to help raise money for charity.
We’re delighted to announce that we are participating in a nationwide event organised by Relocation Agent Network called #RelocationAcrosstheNation, to help raise money for UK charity, Agents Giving.
The #RelocationAcrosstheNation event launches on 22 June, coinciding with Agents Giving Day, the charity’s national fundraising day. Between then and 31 July 2017, we’ll donate £1 every time we refer a customer to another Relocation Agent Network member agent, or receive a referral. As a network of estate agents across England, Scotland and … Continue Reading…
June Market Comment – A Fine Balance
Anyone with an interest in the property market generally understands the influence of supply and demand on house prices. Just like any other “commodity”, if everybody wants something that is in generally short supply, the price tends to rise. In the property sector, the media often describes a rising market good and a falling market as bad.
Indeed, as estate agents, our job is to sell our clients’ property for as much as the market will tolerate and, unlike online estate … Continue Reading…
Too Hot to Handle?”
“Phew, what a scorcher” as the tabloids would say. The current hot weather is a mixed blessing; if you’re on holiday, then the warm sunny days certainly bring out the best of the British coast and countryside. But if you’re working either outside or in a non-air-conditioned office then life can be very uncomfortable.
But what of homebuyers? Does the hot weather bring them out, or does the thought of trudging round home after home in the heat deter them? We’ve … Continue Reading…
Plans For A Successful Sale
Our research has shown that buyers overwhelmingly prefer floorplans on property details in addition to the usual description and written dimensions. There are several good reasons behind this preference, which is why we always feature floorplans on our particulars:
Firstly, where several properties are competing for a buyer’s attention, the particulars that include a floorplan always make an immediate impression. The layout of a property is a major consideration when choosing a new home, and cannot adequately be described by words … Continue Reading…
Election – Market Comment
The unexpected hung parliament might appear to have once again cast a shadow over the housing market. Or maybe not!
We know that the stability and strength proposed by Theresa May might not be delivered after all. But is that really so bad for a market already in danger of overheating? Certainly the lack of available properties for sale has helped to escalate prices to unsustainable levels in some areas.
It is well known that job security, employment levels and interest rates … Continue Reading…
The Agent you Prefer – at the Right Price
We know that when choosing the right estate agent to sell your property you have a tremendous choice, and, on the surface, most estate agents appear to do pretty much the same thing!
Indeed, it is probably true to say that any reasonable estate agent could probably find you a buyer, unless of course they are one of those agents who habitually over-value in order to impress you – don’t be fooled by that ruse!
We believe that it is as much … Continue Reading…
With You All The Way.
Many estate agencies simply act as a broking service that matches people to property. However, we are acutely aware that there is far more to successful selling than this alone. Indeed, over 30% of property sales in this country fail to reach completion, falling through for various reasons.
One of the main reasons is that a buyer simply gets cold feet and withdraws as a result of “buyer remorse”. This is a familiar phenomenon to estate agents and occurs when a … Continue Reading…
