We have been saying for months that now is a great time to sell fuelled by a combination of stock shortage and an increase in active buyers.

Now the research teams at 3 of the leading National UK housing market forecasters, Rightmove, Knight Frank and Savills,  have all concluded exactly what we told you about 3 months ago !

 Why did we at Thornley Groves think it was a great time to sell 3 months ago and why do we think it is still a great time to sell?

 Buyers are starved of fresh stock because owners have been put off from marketing their home for various reasons – fear of not being able to obtain a mortgage, fear that their home may not achieve the kind of price they expect, or even need to cover the mortgage, fear that they may lose their job along with all the other economic concerns, not wanting to increase overheads even if they did want to move upmarket. For those trading down, often nearing retirement age, they have been putting off taking their home to the market as the proceeds of sale have been earmarked to fund retirement and why sell when the market is down; why not put off the sale for another year and hope they will achieve more. Even the casual sellers have been put off from placing their homes on the market speculatively because of the cost of a Home Information pack (HIP).

So where are the buyers coming from? First time buyers have been much more active, many being helped out with deposits by parents taking advantage of lower asking prices and there has also been a shift in the mindset of affluent tenants being tempted out of rented properties for the same reason.

Why should you act now and place your home on the market in the autumn or winter? This supply and demand imbalance won’t last forever and we think the ratio will move back into equilibrium by the spring, when traditionally more homes come to the market. In short we think it will be easier to find a buyer for your home today.

If you’re thinking of selling and you’d like a FREE valuation on your home without obligation, click http://www.thornleygroves.co.uk/valuation-request/  You may be surprised at the price we can secure for you and the speed we can find you a buyer. If you wait for the spring like everyone else, there will be more competition and this may even cause downward pressure on prices.

Now let us sell your Property !

There are clear signs of real activity in the Manchester City Centre property Market we listed a great 2 bed apartment in the MM2 development in Manchesters vibrant Northern Quarter and agreed a sale within a week for a figure close to the asking price!

With the news media focussing on repossessions and how sluggish the property market is, it’s refreshing to see that real people – owner occupiers – are able to sell their properties in the current market, and guess what, the buyers are also real people, not buy to let investors but individuals who are buying to own and occupy in the city centre.

There is no denying that prices have dropped from their peak in August 2007 but the market and prices have stabilised and we are now registering more buyers on our database looking to buy, own and occupy than at any time in the last 18 months, buyers know that prices have become more much more realistic and the great mortgage deals that are out there mean that buying a place in the city centre has never been more affordable.

The sale this week of the MM2 apartment in the Northern Quarter highlights the fact that if you have a property you want to sell in the city centre and are willing to be realistic on price, Thornley Groves have the buyers ready willing and able to buy!
