A new year, a new home

Article Abstract:

Most people use to choose to move house in spring and summer, but in recent years the buying season has shifted, beginning in January instead. The quiet time of year for the property market now runs from September until the end of the year. This is mainly the result of the Budget now being held in the autumn rather than in spring. Many estate agents are currently reporting strong interest from potential purchasers.

A way out of the trap

Article Abstract:

Many housebuilders are now encouraging potential purchasers to consider a part-exchange deal. Some estate agents are now also adopting this approach, but fail to publicise the fact. Part-exchange is often an ideal solution for people who are finding it difficult to sell their existing home, and vendors will often opt for it because it is so convenient, even if it means that they lose some money.

Sandstone and thatch: what am I bid?

Article Abstract:

It is vital to do a lot of preparatory work before bidding for a house at an auction. A survey must be made of the property, a mortgage arranged and documents prepared by solicitors. The potential purchaser must be strict about sticking to a pre-determined limit, as it is easy to become over-enthusiastic and bid too much. Insurance must be arranged from the day of the auction.
