The property market is active and full of opportunities

How’s the property market looking where you live? If you’re out and about, you might be spotting more boards going up, and if not, it’s worth asking why.

If you’re looking for  houses for sale or planning to sell a house in Telford, Shrewsbury, Stafford or Wolverhampton, now is an encouraging time. Across all our branches, we’ve seen a continuous increase in property viewings and quicker offers than many sellers expected, meaning more sold boards are appearing across our locations. One factor giving buyers extra confidence is the recent 0.25% reduction in the mortgage base rate, now down to 4%. This provides a real incentive for buyers to book viewings and move forward with their purchase.

The property auction market is also continuing to grow, offering both buyers and sellers a fast and secure way to complete transactions.

Many people assume the summer holidays aren’t the best time to put a property on the market. In a recent blog, How to Use the Summer Holidays to Your Advantage When Selling Your Home, we explained why this isn’t the case. The market remains active during this period, with plenty of activity and new property listings coming through.
