In recent years a lot has changed in the world and those changes have had a big impact on the property market. In these times it’s more important than ever to choose an experienced and professional estate agent when you come to sell or let your home. Grace Miller & Co understand the changing landscape, here is what’s on our radar:
Work patterns have changed forever.
In recent times, the pandemic has forced us to adapt our lives and working practices. This has resulted in changes to how much time people spend in their usual place of work. One consequence of these changes is that buyers and renters are more willing to consider properties outside of city centres. Buyers and renters previously living in areas such as Brixton and Battersea are now just as likely to consider moving to Putney or Wimbledon. These two postcode areas are both within easy reach of the capital and offer a great transport links into town.
Location, location, location?
Just as people are now less concerned about being close to the office, the long term effects of the pandemic are that people are also becoming much more considerate of where they live and whether their location is good for their wellbeing. People are starting to think about what kind of space they want, rather than just choosing the quickest option. And because so much thought is being given to the choice of home and workspace, it’s opening up new opportunities for both sellers and purchasers.
The online property revolution.
With online platforms thriving, we often hear that the local estate agency is a thing of the past, but an alternative approach is emerging. Grace Miller & Co operates online, on our own website and across the big digital platforms – as well and in person across London and Surrey. This gives us a dual approach that offers our customers the best opportunity to sell or let their home.
We do the groundwork for you.
We understand the areas in which we operate and we know the developments we manage far better than any other estate agent in the area so we are in a unique position when it comes to marketing your property. We believe in humanised estate agency, matching people to homes that are right for them and vice versa rather than making it purely transactional.
