Sales

If you’ve been keeping an eye on the property market recently, one thing you will have noticed is just how busy it is.  With lockdown easing, and many wanting or needing a fresh start, people have been looking for a new house to make their home. 

The house type which performed the best were terraced homes which saw growth of 6.2 percent.

It is extremely important that if you are selling your home you ensure you maximise its space.  Before you decide to knock down walls or spend a fortune on an extension, we have come up with some ‘search for space’ ideas for your home.

We can certainly see the impact the Stamp Duty holiday extension is having on the property market, as we continue to be crazy busy.  Even so, selling your home isn’t as easy as placing a For Sale sign outside or a listing on a property portal.

Every home sale is different, however human nature never changes! and it is understandable that through whispers, chats over the fence, and listening into conversations whilst having a coffee, misunderstandings and myths about home selling can occur.

If you’re a first-time buyer considering your inaugural property purchase in 2021, there are positive prospects ahead. Here are some of the initiatives and forthcoming ideas that may make it a little easier to get a foot on the housing ladder.

There is nothing revolutionary, in fact most of it is common sense, but when you are swept up in the stresses and excitement of buying and selling at the same time, it’s not as easy to see things as they are.

Just like after any great party, from what I can remember! there is often a bad hangover! And as the March 31st stamp duty deadline approaches, a division is starting to emerge in the property market, between two distinct camps of buyers and sellers who are viewing the market in two completely different ways!

Over the years, agents have been terrible at marketing themselves and explaining what they actually do for clients. Therefore, the perception has been estate agents are all super slick salespeople in shiny suits, driving flash cars with no morals and just in it for the easy money.

At Maurice Kilbride Estate Agents we know the local property market inside out, and we know how to make your home outshine the rest.
