What happened in the local property market in September

Our sales director, David Long, looks at what buyers and tenants want

September was a very busy month for Sales and Lettings.

As David mentions, buyers and tenants are making sure they have everything in place, ready to offer. We are receiving multiple offers on the majority of sales and lets that we are agreeing.

If you are looking to sell or let locally, it could be a great time to see what your home is worth.

There is an interesting statistic in the Shepperton property market that, on the face of it, doesn't seem to make much sense. The average Shepperton home currently takes 64 days to sell, compared with a national average of 75 days.

Buyers have plenty to compare this autumn, which makes the way a home enters the market increasingly important. A strong first impression, realistic price and thoughtful presentation can all help attract the right attention.

A fresh coat of paint can help, but missing paperwork can delay a sale for months. Use August to prepare the information buyers and solicitors will need before an offer is agreed.

Buying a home has rarely felt like a straightforward decision, and the present market is no exception.
