“Now is absolutely the perfect time to sell your property,” says Alasdair Morrison. The demand from qualified buyers, who are perfectly positioned to move on the property of their dreams, means that we are seeing buyers competing to view and offer on properties as soon as they come onto the market.
This frenzied demand has been fuelled by a combination of events: the extension of the stamp duty land tax holiday until the end of June; buyers not returning to their pre-pandemic five days a week 9 to 5 working grind and instead continuing their search for more living space in rural locations; the Government’s continuing support for 95% mortgages and the severe lack of property stock coming to the market.
Here in Southwell and Newark we are being asked several times a day for new-to-the-market 3, 4 and 5-bed detached houses and we need more properties to meet buyer demand. We are also seeing record numbers of visitors to our website as buyers seek properties with plenty of flexible indoor and outdoor space.
“If you’re thinking of selling, then now is the time,” says Alasdair, “as the demand for suitable property from qualified buyers is pushing house prices upwards to new record highs. Buyers are prepared and ready to make offers with mortgages already agreed in principle and sales agreed on their own properties.”
