The Crossrail effect
Wednesday, February 10, 2016
House prices in the capital have increased to the point where homeowners are finding themselves priced out of the property market and looking to surrounding areas for affordable options.

2016 – The property year ahead
Wednesday, February 3, 2016
January figures released by the Office for National Statistics showed that UK house prices increased by 7.7% in the year to November 2015 with a figure of 9.8% in the South East where prices benefit from proximity to London, prime commuter catchments and educational options. Average monthly rentals (excluding London) also rose by almost 5% in 2015 accompanied by a raft of changes in legislation for landlords and lettings agents. So what is 2016 likely to hold for the property market, for residential sales and lettings? Without consulting the crystal ball, here are a few predictions for the year ahead.

The queue on Saturday had everyone guessing – are they selling cakes? Certainly not something you see every day but our Beaconsfield branch had queues of patient would-be buyers along Burkes Parade for the sales launch of Park House, Loudwater, a new development from Inland Homes. The pre-launch marketing had clearly done its job, attracting massive attention from prospective purchasers all hoping to secure their new dream home. So no we weren’t selling cakes, just doing what we do best; selling property!
