Spring to the market!

The question of the best time to put your house on the market is one we agents get asked on a regular basis. Of course the answer is when it best suits the client. But if you find yourself being able to decide, then the answer has to be in March.

According to figures obtained from the UKs leading property portal, Rightmove, research has revealed that March is the month when the most buyers get in touch with agents for each property available. Put simply demand begins to overtake supply so home-movers coming to the market in March have the best chance of securing a buyer. Add to that the fact that the quest for more outside space increases as the weather improves, with buyers aiming to be in their new home by summer.

So if you’re thinking of moving soon now may be the most productive time to take that leap! For any more advise or to have a chat about that the next step involves call the team at Mortimer & Gausden on 01284 755526

Category Two – Fun and Friendly

You can let your imagination run wild here. Simply put, we want to see images that will bring a smile to everyone’s face.  Do you have an image of you or your friends having fun in the park or maybe a photograph of your dog posing outside your favourite café? If it makes you smile, we want to see it!

As you roam around Bury St. Edmunds and surrounding villages, have a look out for our new for sale and sold boards, which will be going up very soon. The fresh new design is part of our mini relaunch which has included this new website and the employment of another key staff member. Our office is also having a major refit and we hope to be able to show you images of this soon. 

Not all of our vendors choose to have a for sale board outside their home, but we certainly know they can be an excellent source of enquiry, so well worth thinking about.
