2012 Could be the Worst Year to Sell

admin — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 07:25:55 +0000

The property market doom and gloom is underway in 2012 with the council of mortgage lenders warning that likely increases in unemployment will cause property repossessions to increase during the year. Increased unemployment will obviously have a huge increase on the property market, repossessions are likely to increase and the uncertainty created will mean fewer buyers in the market therefore driving prices down. It’s never been more crucial to set the correct prices when looking to make a quick house sale. The prediction from the CML is that repossessions could be up by as much as 30% on last year. Combine all this information and it leads most experts to predict that 2012 will have fewer sales than ever experienced in recent memory.

The Start of a New Year

2011 has seen little happen in the property market. Few sales and little overall movement have created an uneventful year. Sales are down on previous years and prices have continued to fall. So what will 2012 bring. Well most believe more of the same. There will awash be a reluctance to drop the house of the price you’re selling but ultimately, with such few buyers in the market vendors looking to make a quick house sale have little option.

Get the Pricing Right

Pricing your property at the right level (especially if you looking to make a quick house sale) is essential. During 2011 the pace of house sales slowed to a level not experienced in years and sold prices are in decline. With this in mind, it should come as a shock to most people that research has revealed that asking prices actually increased during the year.

In our experience it is very common for asking prices to not truly reflect a houses value but this research even shocked us. The difference in the movement of sold prices and asking prices could be either unrealistic expectations of the seller or over pricing by the agent in order to get the business. Either way, we believe it is essential that a seller knows the true value of their property (even if they intend to market it higher to begin with). You can find our guide to pricing your home here. Use this to understand what sale price to expect and market the property at the correct level to get the most interest.

Can You Sell in 2012

Well not if 2011 is anything to go by.

If you are one of the people struggling to sell their property in 2011, trust me you’re not alone. 2011 was the worst year for property sales in 40 years and was nearly 50% lower (in terms of property turnover) than 2007. Unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be any light at the end of the tunnel for anyone looking to sell their property. During next year (2012) the slump in sales is expected to continue.

So what are the options if you need to sell? In our experience, we have seen a large inbalance between the sellers expected price and how much buyers are currently expecting to pay. Put your self in the perspective of a buyer. You know that the property market is struggling and you know sellers are having a hard time making a sale, so in your mind you hold all the cards. Why would you pay over the odds?

If you are a seller an need to make a quick house sale give us a call and we will help you aim your property at the correct level in the market to target the right buyers, alternatively we can take the pain out of selling for you and buy your property from you.

Property Prices Falling!

admin — Sun, 23 Oct 2011 10:14:53 +0000

The most recent figures show that during the month of September house prices fell once again. On overage the property prices in England fell by 0.3% in September which brings the overall drop this year up to 2.3%. This means that the average property price has fallen by over £5000 so far this year.

Its not all doom and gloom. Prices have made improvements since the worst days of the crash. Prices are 9.2% higher than they were ar their lowest.

What the future holds is anyones guess now. We may see prices remain at a similar level for the next few years but if the warning signs of the double dip are to be believed prices may be lower than ever in the coming months.

Double Dip (revisited)

admin — Tue, 27 Sep 2011 08:29:55 +0000

Last week saw a £64bn drop in the value of Britain’s leading shares due to widespread concerns in the market over the possibility of a double-dip recession

The double dip (should it come) would have a huge impact on employment, living standards and more importantly (to you and me) property prices.

Is it all bad news?

Well no. carefully predicting this double dip could have it advantages for home owners. If you were to sell your property now (even at a lower value than you may think its worth) you could potentially buy an equivalent property at a much lower price when the double dip hits.

So why are we offering you a quick house sale if prices could fall?

Simple, we are in it for the long haul, so we believe that, while this is a dangerous time to buy, we will own the property we buy for many years and prices will ultimately return to the level they were in 2008.

Don’t Pay For a Quick House Sale

admin — Sun, 18 Sep 2011 11:48:45 +0000

We have recently been made aware that some quick house sale companies have started asking for money upfront from the seller. We don NOT do this. This seems to be a new practice and not one we’ve come across before. The advice we have given is that we would recommend checking the paperwork and asking where this money is going. We wouldn’t want to suggest that companies who use this method are unscrupulous but you don’t want to find yourself out of pocket.

In most cases (that we have heard about) the company asks for £2000 at the start of the process. This money is probably used to help finance the purchase and in most cases will be a legitimate request but be careful and make sure the paperwork states that this money have changed hands.

August Property Prices

admin — Fri, 02 Sep 2011 21:01:49 +0000

According to Nationwide’s national survey house prices dropped by 0.6% in August. This easily reverses the slight increase we experienced in July and is not in line with most economists’ predictions.

The snap shop of the market provided by the nationwide indicates that the average house price in the UK fell by £2,817 over the month.

The Nationwide also stated that over the last 3 months (which is a less volatile measure) prices have increased by 0.1%. Although this is much lower than the 0.3% experienced over the previous 3 months.
