Should I stay or should I go?

THE housing market in our region, both in the run up to the referendum and immediately post the election, appears to be mimicking the result – with people choosing to up sticks and move rather than sit tight and remain where they are.

Feared Brexit jitters haven’t materialised here at Perry Bishop and Chambers, where we recorded our strongest sales month in June year to date, and business in the first two weeks of July has got off to a flying start.

A wealth of new listings, including period properties as well as brand new homes, have recently come to market and our specialist Land and Development department are marketing some interesting new plots and buildings for conversion.

“It’s very much business as usual here at Perry Bishop”, says MD Phillip Bishop.

“A growing numbers of retirees are still seeking to downsize and enjoy youthful town living with all the convenience it can bring. Conversely growing families are looking to upsize and take advantage of historically low mortgage interest rates. Confidence in the market remains strong.”

If you are looking to buy or sell, do call into your local Perry Bishop branch to see if anything on our books fits the bill.

If you are thinking of upsizing and require a new mortgage, we can also arrange for you to meet up with one of our professional financial advisors so you can find out exactly what the cost is to move.

The next step up may not be as big a jump as you think!
