While we often comment on the national market one thing that has been increasingly making itself evident these past few months is that any general, national commentary is almost always fatally incorrect in any local market! So, what I’m saying is that economics “soothsayer’s” comment and or prediction, while to be taken notice of, will not reflect what’s going on in our region, our locality and certainly not in your street.

While nationally, listings are as scarce, as ever, well presented and priced homes continue to be contested. There are two lessons there:

For vendors the need to present a fresh, tidy, uncluttered home is imperative if we are to attract the very canny buyers in the market at present.
For buyers, we note the intense competition for those few well presented and priced homes on the market and often see disappointed purchasers who’ve perhaps left their offer a little too late and are repeatedly on the outer in multi offer situations. A case of “he who hesitates seems to regularly lose” to coin and amend that phrase.
