Search
Once we have been instructed to act for a client we commence the property search. Depending on your circumstances, methods we may use to find a property for you include:
- Existing contacts and knowledge of 'off-market' property
- Estate Agents
- Local Developers
- Auction Houses
- Private Vendors
- Leafleting
- Advertising
Because we dedicate all our working hours to looking for property, we will contact all relevant agents on your behalf and call key agents and contacts on a daily basis to ensure you are always at the front of the queue to see property. We also seek out agents who are off the beaten track but who may have just what you are looking for. In short, we leave no stone unturned in the search for your next home or development site.
Selection
From our property search we will draw up a shortlist of properties which we think fulfil your brief and which we suggest you see. We will also provide you with examples of properties we have discounted and explain the reasons we don't think they are suitable. We will normally preview all homes we show you and will accompany you on all viewings at a time to suit you. Although we understand that a home has to 'feel' right, we will always be the objective voice of reason and will guide you to ensure you are making a considered investment, as well as purchasing a home.
In the current market this is even more important than usual to buy the right house in the right place at the right price. With our knowledge and experience, we are perfectly placed to help you do this.
We will continue with our property search on your behalf until you find the perfect home and have an offer accepted. We will be in contact with you regularly, normally daily or biweekly if you prefer. With our help most serious buyers will find their ideal home within six weeks regardless of the nuances of the property market at the time, and several clients find their new home on their first outing with us. Even if it takes you a while to decide what you need or you have unusual requirements, we are confident of our ability to find you a new home within 6 months - hopefully you will have moved in well within that time! Failure to find the right home quickly has been catastrophic for many first time buyers in recent years and has resulted in potential buyers being priced out of the market place. We don't want that to happen to our clients!
For those looking to rent, we can normally find you a new home within a week or less.
