The property market is in constant flux. There are occasions when there is plenty of stock and buyers can take their time. However, we are not in that market now, in fact it is quite the opposite. Figures show that generally there are twice as many buyers as there are properties to buy – result, a feeding frenzy.

So forget a leisurely, late evening, glass-in-hand, browse through the property portals, because by the time a property comes to market nowadays, the early bird has already caught its worm. Serious buyers behave differently in this type of market as they know they need to find a property before it ever reaches a portal. And the best way to do this is to get to know the local independent estate agents so you can be first in the queue for the pick of the properties.

You see, as experienced local agents, we know our own market best. Years of working in the area means we know the local people and – crucially - often hear first when someone is about to make a move. This enables us to carefully match those who want to sell with those who want to buy.

If you are serious about moving this spring, why not get in touch with one of our property consultants to take full advantage of our unrivalled knowledge, experience and list of buyer contacts, all of which are vital in this hot market. Call or email us today to arrange a confidential free market appraisal, or a meeting to discuss your property search criteria.
