We struggled to sell our home and felt we needed a personal approach

This week, we hear from a client that had a wonderful home, but after an unsuccessful marketing campaign with another estate agent they felt they needed a more personal service. Here we find out how Newboulds & Co helped them move.

This stunning property had been on the market with another agent for quite a few months. That agents strategy was to have as many properties on the market as possible. The homeowner had met our sales director, David Long viewing properties and was impressed with the personal service provided and felt that was how they wanted their home marketed.

After a little while, they invited David to provide a market appraisal of their home. Let's find out how it went:

"We sold our flat with Newboulds and could not praise the service enough! David and the team have got such a personal touch that is very often lacking with estate agents. Do not hesitate - sell or buy with Newboulds!!

We were originally on with a different agent, but 6 months later we still hadn’t sold. After viewing a couple of properties with David, we decided it was a no brainier to switch to them. Everything felt so personal, he knew answers to all our questions, he always got back to us with enquiries or to tell us about houses that genuinely matched our requests and we knew he would do the same with buyers for our flat.

A month later, it was sold! What is often a very stressful process ran so much smoother. He continued to keep us updated and liased with solicitors and vendors higher up the chain to get things moving. Now we are happily settled in our new home with huge thanks to David, Barry and the team."

If you listened to the doom merchants, you would think first-time buyers (FTB) in Shepperton had no chance at all. According to the loudest voices, buying a first home is impossible, the ladder has been pulled up, and the only people who buy their first homes today are lottery winners or those with wealthy parents.

If you’re planning to buy a home soon, you might assume the best place to start is on the property portals, Rightmove, Zoopla, or OnTheMarket. But the truth is, the savviest buyers are seeing homes long before they ever appear online. Here’s why registering with an agent puts you one step ahead.

If you walk down almost any Shepperton road or street, you will see the quiet signs of life playing out behind the front doors. Families growing. Kids leaving home. Kitchens are being refitted for the second or third time. Yet somewhere in that rhythm, every homeowner starts to feel it again ... the gentle itch to move.

If you have ever thought about selling your Shepperton home, you will know how tempting it can be to stretch the asking price. After all, it is your biggest tax-free asset, and those extra few thousand pounds can feel like a sensible cushion. Yet in the Shepperton property market, ambition can sometimes cost more than it earns.
