It may feel far too early to think about Christmas, but moving home takes longer than many sellers expect. Starting in July can make the journey calmer and more controlled.

If you are a Shepperton homeowner thinking about moving home, there appears to be some new information between what Shepperton home sellers want and what buyers are actually willing to pay.

Scrolling property portals is useful, but registering with an estate agency can give buyers a more personal, proactive search experience, especially when the right home is about to come to market.

As an agent in the Shepperton property market, I believe it is important to offer local homeowners a balanced and realistic view of both the Shepperton and national property markets.
