Heading full on into Spring those that are looking to move are going full steam ahead. Whether it is renting, selling or buying the markets traditionally move very well at this time of year and even without the buy-to-let push we had last year numbers are looking very positive.
Nationally the value of property is rising and locally that story is very true too. A recent blog on Zoopla stated that some homeowners are now earning more per year from their property than their salary. This proves property is the perfect investment, so whether you are trading up, buying a second property or even aiming towards getting on the ladder then it is best to get your ducks in a row and make it happen.
Propertywire recently wrote that mortgage enquiries for the back on 2016 were up and people are taking advantage of those great mortgages deals and low interest rates. Nowadays you get better lending rates for a mortgage than you do for any other lending product. If you would like to talk to one of our team about getting a mortgage in place you can give us a call on 01733 592020.
Family homes are the ones coming on and selling quickly for us and as a recent article from Rightmove stated, most people want homes they can just move straight into without having to do any work. This means before putting your property up for sale it might be wise to make it look its best with neutral décor and modern, tidy areas. Time is quoted as the biggest restraint new buyers have so those fixers-uppers are not top of the buying hot list.
Our new boards are up and dotted around the city and sales are happening pretty quickly. From our free instant online valuation tool to our Marketing Toolkit, we have the tools to make sure your property is seen by as many people as possible through the property portals, our website and social media channels. This successful combination is creating great statistics such as listed on 14/2 and sold 1/3; this is doing much to show our marketing methods are successful.
If you are looking to sell, use our free valuation tool to start you off or give one of our friendly team a call. If you are looking to buy keep up to date with our latest properties, news and blogs and check out www.tortoiseproperty.co.uk , our Facebook page or our blog.
